what is the fastest way to get rid of a cold?


Question:
i HATE being sick

Answers:
1. Get lots of rest
2. Drink plenty of fluids, preferably water
3. Take your vitamins
4. Eat well and healthy
5. Just have to let it run it's course

Next time, take Zinc (Zicam or Halls Zinc with Vitamin C and Echinacea). But read the directions before use! My friend too waaay too many of those zinc drops and he felt so gross afterwards. He didn't get worse or anything like that, but it made him feel pretty gross. When zing is taken in the early stages of a cold (when you start feeling even the slightest symptoms), it has been shown to reduce the length of a cold from weeks, to a few days. Try it next time.

Other Answers:
Drink Orange juice, or take Vit. C tablets to boost your immune system, get lots of rest and stay hydrated. Depending on what type of cold you have take some Dayquil or nyquil to help some of the symptoms go away till your fully better! Get Well Soon!
Chicken noodle soup is a good start. It helps to clear out the mucus. There is also a product you can get at the drug store called Zicam. It's a spray and it's supposed to prevent colds and help you get rid of them. But truth be told, there is no cure for a cold. There are only things to relieve them. Buy some kleenex with lotion, get in bed, and sleep. Cold medicines can help too. Feel better!
Go to your local drugstore and get a medicine called Airbourne. It was designed by a teacher who was tried of getting sick. Also buy some Zicam, echineca (found in the vitamin section) Vitamin C pills and orange juice. If you take all of those every 3 hours, you get rid of your cold in 2 days.
Drink lots of orange juice, eat chicken noodle soup, and do something active that will make you sweat alot. It is possible to sweat a cold out.
