Anybody got any tips on how to kick a cold? I caught one yesterday and it's pissing me off. People around the office have had it and now it's my turn.

There is no cure for the cold. You can only control the symptoms.
Hope you feel better!"Can't vouch for him, though he seems normal via email."

Cold-FX seems to work for me. Lots of NHL players/ teams use it. It seems if I take it just as feel the starting symptoms it stops the cold dead. Once the cold has a full head of steam doesn't seem to do that much.

I've had a cold all week too. Freaking sucks. Dang people in the office with a million kids bringing in all their germs... Last night was the first night all week that I actually slept for more than 3 hours.
Garlic, chicken soup, vitamin C, zinc.... None of it helped all that much this time around. Last night I went with nyquil and honey/butter/whiskey warmed in the microwave to coat my throat and numb it out and finally got some sleep."Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, "Wow, what a Ride!"

My snot is the color of the yellow in the topsheet of my launchers.
I've also hear that you can go out and just go balls out mountain biking or weight lifting or running or basketball, etc. to just sweat the hell out of it. That can backfire, though - feel worse after."Have fun, get a flyrod, and give the worm dunkers the finger when you start double hauling." ~Lumpy

I have found that overloading on vitamin c and echinacea, plus lots of water and sleep actually works really freaking well.smoke crack and worship satan
