There must be hundreds of other claimed cures out there for colds and flu. Can they all be effective? Perhaps a hot beer will sweat it out of you quicker as was recently claimed by some. It worked for them.
How about honey in hot tea? How about just breathing in the steam from boiling ocean water?

Perhaps we can get some other myriads of cures posted? Peroxide cannot be the lone winner:D
 
I heard steeping in a boiling cauldron of hot oil will cure it quicker than a "hot beer" (or a hot toddy, for that matter). :)
 
My first line of defense is frequent hand washing and dicipline against touching my eyes, nose and mouth when in public.


I have found that eating well and sleeping well keep my immune system high performance. Having you body well nourished and rested keeps your hormone profile top notch.

high test+low cortisol=bulletproof to cold n flu


A person I know that has had a gastric bypass was constantly fighting malnutrition. The person replaced the bad eating habbits with drinking and smoking. The person would get a lung infection and be spewing green from every hole on their head.

In the WEEKS they were down with the funk I would catch a little tickle in my throat and a sore ear for a few days. I would be better before the illness ran its course in the other.


Mtry, I know you and your probably looking for something a little better than being well rested/feed and smart about exposure.

Wrap vinegar soaked corn stalks around your head and eat a raw garlic sandwitch on pumpernickel while using a ouja board to contact Ewtgo the high spirit of health and beg for his power.

Your cold will be better in 5-7 days gauranteed!

Guaranteed? I will try it, thanks.
Where do I take my warranty issues if I need to? LOL:D
 
I am looking and want to buy an extra virgin snake oil with at least more than 50 years left on expiration date. Anybody want to sell their leftovers?

Oopps!!! Should I post this on CLASSIFIEDS - Sell Your Gear section?
 
Haha, you guys are funny.

For alergy suffers, I've heard moving out of the Ohio Valley (the midwest) and going somewhere out west makes a difference.

H2O2 did nothing for this current cold I have. It started out as a sore throat and gargling did nothing. No bubbling in the ears. I'm selling my stock in this "over oxygenated" water. :mad:

We'll try some Vitamin C pills, but I think it's going to take it's toll since it's been brewing in my sinus' for a week. I give up. Mtry wins this time.
 
Don't take it personally Buckeyefan 1...this thread is kind of funny, and not really at your expense since you were not mentioned. Think of it that way and hopefully you'll see the humor. Steeping in a cauldron of boiling oil? Come on...who fails to see the humor?
 
I heard the letting someone punch you in the face works really well too.

Hey Mtry, I can help you with that one if you like, and I bet alot of other people would be willing to help too. ;)

Isn't that part of the posting rules and being here, to have fun and be funny at times:D
What would it be without it:eek:

Did you break even at least? ;)

We'll try some Vitamin C pills,

Good luck :D

Not about winning or loosing, just finding and getting to the facts and learning to be skeptical of remedies-"I tired it and it worked for me" :D

Yes, I think by the time you feel it in the throat it has already infected and it will run its course. Did you or still have running nose? I had a cold a few weeks ago but the running nose was 2 days, then the after effects of getting it over, no constant running.

Let me think hard about that for a bit:D
Maybe I can charge for it? What would be the going rate? :D Maybe I can retire early?
