the best remedy for a cold is taking a hot bath and followed by a cold shower, this will kill all bacteria from the surface of your body. then make sure to wrap yourself in ten towels and to pour oil over your head, this will keep your skin intolerable of unwanted virus'.

If you can stand it, try breaking off, peeling and eating, RAW, a couple of cloves of garlic, I do this quickly and wash it down. Garlic is known for it's many antiviral properties, but it must be raw, not cooked, or you will kill the potency of the active ingredient, allicin. Try to up your intake of water, helping your body to heal and flush out what ails you, and there is some proof that drinking broth rendered from boiled chicken with bones in helps in some ways-(something about the marrow I think). A few bites of a raw onion, (there are milder "sweeter" varieties making it easier to tolerate, if the regular yellow onions are too strong-)it will help with a sore throat, as onions (again, RAW) will help to actually sterilize the human mouth naturally, thus helping to destroy the junk that makes the throat sore). Eat some fresh fruits, such as apples, skin on, and grapes, and whatever raw veggies you like--(if you aren't a veggie kind of person, try dipping them in your favorite salad dressing. If you can, try to get the rest that your body tells you it needs, so that it can spend more energy fighting off that cold. Avoid processed sugar, (such as cake, cookies, candies, etc.)-as I believe the sugar helps to feed the germs that cause a cold. Avoid milk and dairy during this time, as it thickens the phlegm that your body is trying to expel.Go for some (I like vanilla-flavored) soy milk if you are wanting some cereal. Don't forget to change or sterilize your toothbrush regularly, (daily is best, I have cleaned mine with hydrogen peroxide and thoroughly rinsed between uses)-so you don't keep reinfecting yourself. Well, these are things that I have found to be helpful in my own experience, I hope it helps!
