Take a grapefruit (ruby red works best) and cut it in half. Put the halves in the mircowave for 3 minutes each. (warming them up releases antioxidants or something) Eat both halves with a spoon and drink the juice. It tastes quite bitter, but it works! The cold is gone almost instantly.
Juice 2 ginger roots and lemon and boil it. Then, after it has cooled a little add 1 tablespoon of rum. After that mix it all together. Then get a shot glass and take a shot of it about every hour. Remember to stay warm and only drink orange juice for that day. This remedy should end the cold in about a day.
If you have a cold then there are some things that you have to do such as chewing some strong mint flavored chewing gum, having a lot of sleep, taking a nice relaxing bath with a pepermint scented bath salt or bubble bath, eat and drink lots of oranges and orange juice and use lavender oil on your pillow to help you get the rest that you need.
Slice a tablespoon of ginger, bring to a boil and add cayenne pepper and lemon. Allow drink to cool to the point where you are able to gargle with it (as hot as you can take it) Gargle with half and sip remaining half. Do every hour or as needed - sore throat will be gone instantly!

This is the ULTIMATE remedy for getting rid of a cold instantly. With an eyedropper pour hydrogen peroxide in one ear until full and lay on your side. Let it sit for 10 min. You will feel and hear it bubbling. That's normal. Drain and then repeat with the other side. Within the next day your cold will be gone. Crazy but true, colds enter our ears and hydrogen peroxide eliminates it like no other. Even physicans recommend this.
The best thing to do is to drink lots of water, because your body uses alot of fluids when it's fighting off a cold. Wear warm Pjamas with socks when you go to bed. Don't take any medicine or paracetemol. Let your body do the work. The besr thing to do is relax, stay warm, and get plenty of rest. But if you do happen to get annoyed at your cold, take these hints.
- Get a glass of lemonade and put it in the microwave for one minute. All the fizzyness is lost so all you have is sugar. its a good way to get some energy into your system.
- over the stove boil some water, then add peppermint, chamomile and rose oil. soak a cloth in this and then take it to bed.
- eat a spoon of honey before you go to bed. the natural ingredients help with fighting off the cold.
hope this helps. it sure helped me!
Shred a decent portion of ginger root and boil it with water you can add mint leaves for taste however it is optional (do not replace boiling process with a microwave!!!) Strain the boiled ginger water, into a cup and add lemon juice, (juice your own fresh lemons). Add a little bit of apple cider vinegar and honey. I think it taste great and it works well on a sore throat, common cold, and upset stomach. If you drink this tea through out your sickness it eases the pain and your sickness will heal faster. Do not drink any thing that is cold but do not use microwave to warm things up. Stay away from milk and dairy products until your sickness is completely gone. Hope you enjoy this it works well for me and a lot of others I know.
Drink a ton of Water- about 12 8 oz glasses
Drink about 2 bottles of pom- 8 oz each
take vitamen c
wear enough clothing to bed that you sweat
It always works in a day
-the only thing, is you end up going to the bathroom like 80 times
This is from my Spanish grandmother. Mix 1-2 tablespoon of rum with 1 glass of warm milk, add 1 teaspoon of honey to taste and take 1-2 aspirins before going to bed. You will sweat out all the harmful toxins in your body. One night should work.
Take lemon juice and heat it over the stove, DONT LET IT BOIL when it is about to boil take it off the stove and put honey in it. Make sure to drink it warm!!! Also works well if you have pneumonia.
At the first sign of a cold (sneezing, post nasal drip, cough) Take 3 echinachea caps,1 500 mg vitamin C, 1 odor free garlic tablet,1 zinc tablet, 1 beta carotene. Repeat every 4 hours, Do Not Miss Any Doses, continue this regimine even once you feel better( I do it for about 10 days). The cold/infection can regroup and take a turn for the worse if you miss doses.It should knock it out in a few days, if your immune system is healthy, otherwise, it may take alittle longer.
Gargle with apple cider vinegar and salt. Get ready to cough out that phlegm! You'll feel immediate relief.
I don't know where I got this from, but it works! At the first sign of a cold, put one drop of clove oil under your tongue. I will warn you, it tastes like hell, but I haven't had a cold in years!
One thing though, the longer you wait to do this, the longer it takes to be effective
At the first scratch in the throat, take 4 to 6 echinacea and chew at least 3 1000 milligrams of Vitamin C. Repeat about 12 hours later. Might have to do it 2 days in a row. Guaranteed no cold.
