Hi there,
I am Registered Dietetic technician. To answer your question, the flu is a virus. The only way it will go away is by having your immune system fight it off. Over the counter medicines can help with relief of the virus.There are thigs you can do to help your immune system though. Whenever your sick, you should be getting 8+ hours sleep a night to help "rest"your immune system. Aslo taking a mult-vitamin, ONLY 1 vit c pill (excess won't help). Do you really think a sugar loaded soda will help? I think not. Hope that helped!

only one way to find out -----try it

Nope not true at all.Not sure why anyone would even say that. no

This would not work.
Whisky and lemon doesn't work either but is certainly worth trying, unlike anything made with Coke.

I know that Coke is only good for melting your teat and bones(in long term) For flu I recommend to repeat "I'm healthy" a billion times- you'll cure faster this way I heard it works. But i think must depend on the person body type.

No it will not work,but if you like lemon,try hot tea with lemon or hot water with lemon,will not cure but will help

It may sound ridiculous, but we used to get rid of stubborn cough by drinking a warmed can of coke (heated in a water bath till the base pops), added with a few thin slices of ginger. It worked!! I think (warm) coke with lemon may sooth your throat, but not exactly cure flu, especially if your have fever. Anyway, lemon is rich in vitamin C, and may be used to prevent flu.

The flu is a virus, and can not be "cured" - not even by coke. The lemon may help cure someone of scurvy, however.

there is really no good medical explanation for this . but it really does work.

Once I was on vacation in HK during winter. Caught a cold and was feeling really miserable. I added lemon to Coke Light. Heat it up in the microwave. Tasted really good. Couple of hours later I was feeling much better.

When u're desperate, you'll try anything. :) try it and tell me
