Well, the first cold of the year hit me. Not just any cold: THE FLU! After a wonderful weekend in Bellingham, Washington, my body decided it had put up with enough of the every day routine stressors. I wanted to provide a few of the product names and tips and tricks I have discovered to be very effective in speeding up the process of a lingering cold and painful moments.
A cold wash-cloth is a must have. When I'm sick, I like to have numerous blankets that I can switch on and off depending upon my temperature, and I always remember to keep that thermometer close by! Personally, I cannot stand Airborne, so I usually consume a couple Chinese herbal, homeopathic remedies when I feel the cold symptoms coming on.
I love a new lozenge "Chloraseptic", which may not be the most pleasant taste, but numbs your sore throat for nearly the entire day, with the help of Cold-Eeze, and regular lozenges (personal favorite brand: Ricola, flavor Honey Herb). Other things to help a sore throat? The infamous tea with lemon juice and honey, popsicles, and my all-time favorite: hot Thai coconut broth soup!
