I'm sick and need your home remedies.

[Flub]

beer solves everything

[Dabram]

vitamin c, chicken-soup, drink lotsa water, and especially: exercise, a fever/cold is easy to sweat out..

my solution to most things is exercise tho, i think most things are 90% between the ears anyway.. (does that saying work in english?)


ps. actually beer isn't bad at all!

[Money]

Man up.

no shit, its a cold.

[DoTheFandango]

Trust me, try Yarrow tea, please.

If you have a cold, go buy some Zicam. It's like a gel that you use like a nasal spray. PROVEN to shorten the common cold and lessen it's effects. It's one of the only clinically PROVEN medicines to treat a cold i believe.

If you're afraid of taking medicine, i find that rock candy or honey is good for sore throats. Drinking LOTS of water helps clear sinuses, along with saline nasal spray sometimes. For coughs, if it's congestion you could take a decongestant (once again, don't be afraid of OTC medicines). If it's a dry cough, alternating between steam and cold air (maybe hard to do in summer) works great. Weird i know, but THC supposedly opens up your branchiae and may aleave coughing, although smoking lowers your immune response in general.

if you're trying to break a fever run your socks under water and wait until they're completly soaked, take the socks and put them on before bed, put a dry pair over top of the wet soaks and fall asleep.

Your body temperature will rise because it thinks you're a lot colder than you actually are.

edit: seriously try the honey and salt

Right.. until 5 years from now when its discovered that it turns your liver into soup.

lmao.

[Soup du Jour]

I don't need anything... All I need is...

I like to try to sweat out my colds.
And, of course, lots of water and vitamin C.

[Cops]

decongestants kind of bother me, cold medicine is so widely abused it's highly unnecessary. I ended up in the hospital because I was high as fuck from all the cold medicine I was taking that it started to speed up my heart rate, which scared the life out of me and only made shit worse.

[Mr. Peanuts]

Co-codamol is awesome.

[FarScape]

Eat a chicken soup and drink a lot of water.

[Capital Knockers]

Orange juice, vitamins, soup, and a fat chronic blunt.

Where do I get this, and what does it do if I abuse it? :P

lmao.

or you can take un-verified, un-regulated, non-medicine and maybe get better on your own accord. You might as well do nothing, it'll be cheaper and you can gloat to us about how impressive your immune system is.

or fuck it, if you don't want to follow modern medicine, go cover yourself in leeches. They've got about the same success rate as herbal remedies.
