Remedies to prevent a cold

So I'm starting to get a bit of a sore throat at night and in the morning and I've been getting a little congested.  Some girls were complaining of sore throats at work on Sunday so I know that's where I got it from.  Any secrets out there to keep it from getting worse?  I know I've heard drink lots of orange juice but can't remember if that's for a cold or not.

Re: Remedies to prevent a cold

  • I think OJ, tea with honey, and lots of rest will make it better.  Chicken soup or any soup that you like will help too.  I don't know if those are old wives tales but they seem to help.

  • I keep a bottle of chewable vitamin c tablets at the house.  When I feel one coming on, I will take one in the morning and one in the evening for a couple of days and usually it goes away.

  • Thanks...of course I have none of these at home.  I'm not a huge fan of OJ so maybe I will just stick with tablets.

  • My mom swears by those zinc pills (forget the name) but they have never worked for me. And my SIL uses the EmergenC packets you can get at the drug store. It's just a consentrated dose of Vitamin C.
