natural remedy?

Question:

i can feel that iam coming down with a cold, the worst symptom is at nght when my nose becomes fully blocked. my throat is also sore does anyone know of an at home natural remedy to relieve this?

Answers:
before you symptoms develop into serious events, do something strenuous like go running, jump rope, go outside and garden, etc. Basically, go outside and sweat. Sweat for about 30-45 minutes so your body can release and build more T-cells to help fight off the bacteria or virus in your system. you'd be amazed, i've used this method for years and it works for basic and common colds and some flu's. No guarentee but its worked for me and a lot of people I know.

You should try inhaling steam this will give u a relief but it is not the cure.
Cold always takes its time but for sore throat you can consult a doctor.

My grandma usually gives us ginger powder,honey and lemon just about a teaspoon for the throat and believe it clears it up for everything else we just take cold medications... hope u feel better It is also allergy season. Did you get this last year? Eat lightly, drink lots of fluids, take naps and get lots of rest, use vitamins and supplements. There are juices out there that are antibacterial, and promote wellness.

http://www.eastherb.com/Cold-Flu/cold_flu_s.html The best cure for your condition is that you must stop consuming sugar in all forms. Take 5 black pepper corn, 2 cloves whole, a small piece of cinnamon stick, pinch of nutmeg and mace powder, 7 basil leaves and a small piece of fresh ginger and boil them together in 250 ml water. After it boils down, drink like soup three times a day adding some jaggery for better taste. This will not only cure your symptoms but also prevent you from getting fever. Intake of honey and warm water is advisable. Inhale steam three times a day till you get relief.
Avoid cold drinks and ice cream for time being. Avoid chill weather and stay in warmer place. Cover your body with warm cloths if it is winter. Hot water shower is a perfect bath for your condition.

Press the finger tips and thumbs for better results. Apply eucalyptus oil on your chest, neck and outside the nose, before going to bed for sound sleep . You need not to see a doctor.

Best of health,

Check my profile. A steamy hot shower, and follow that up with the other suggstions.
Not only gargle with saline solution, but sniff or spray some into your nose.
Speaking of the nose, it has reflexology points
along the sides, so massage them from the base of the nose, up toward the bridge. I did this once and I was glad to be in a bathtub, because a wad of nasal discharge came out and drained my sinuses very nicely. One of the best remedies on the planet for the symptoms and cause of the common cold is Licorice extract. The stuff better than cortisone for inflammation, is a mild expectorant, and most importantly anti-viral. So much so that a recent study done in Germany demonstrated its efficacy against SARS virus, and other studies (search www.pubmed.com) demonstrate it is effective against HIV, Epstein-Bar, Herpes, Influenza, and similarly aggressive viruses.
