    Help me!
    I need cold remedies now or sooner.
    Please dont move this to Health and Fitness. This is more important than that.
    Mappers of the world share your knowledge for the good of humankind.
    Or for my good at least.

    For some reason, a curry normally gets rid of any cold for me.

    Not a normal curry though, it has to be a Geordie style curry :D

    Indian food does work well it sweats some of it out of your system.

    My other tip has to be make yourself as warm as possible for a couple of days its a pain but it seems to flush it out your system.

    Also whisky helps :D

    Dr NinjaBellydance What is your pleasure sir

    Lemon balm tea. A herbalist friend of mine recommended it and it really works! You need to drink plenty of it, although the addition of a little snifter probably wouldnt hurt! ;)

    Just wait it out. Getting rid of the symptoms by using medicine actually makes it stay in your system for longer (since those "symptoms" is actually your body fighting it)

    Chicken soup. Preferably homemade.
    And echinacea, as soon as you detect cold symptoms (once you already have the cold, it's too late)

    I dont know who removed my post here on this thread.
    I know It sounded like I was kidding about cold remedies when I said "making love can cure cold"...
    If anyone hav asked I would hav given the reason.. why it is so...

    there r two uncommon ways of beating cold
    1. having a good laugh
    2. getting romantic.

    now Laugther works by reducing the levels of stress harmones in the blood, which slow down the immune cells responsible for searching out and destroying viruss.

    getting romantics also benefits the immune system by Raising levesl of the "Attachment harmone" Oxytocin, This harmone is produced when people show affection(even at orgasm time too)

    I still stand corrected :D

    ps: I got cold :(, gotta call my gf :love:

    A bottle of brandy.

    It does not affect the cold but you dont give a damn after drinking it.

    daftyman A 4oz can of whoop-ass!

    I like the two hats cure.

    Place a hat on the bed post.
    Keep drinking until you see two hats.
    Pass out
    when you wake up the cold is gone!
    ...well maybe! ;)

    Real solution:
    make sure you rest and allow your body to fight off the virus. If you try to keep going as usual you just make the cold last longer.
