Lord Geordie Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 Knowing Kirky and seeing his pics over the newyear period it was too much Whiskey that CAUSED his cold It's most likely a delayed hangover To be honest MOST cold remedies are just Paracetamol based it's cheaper to buy a box of Paracetamol tablets and take half a tablet 3 time a day and if you have a badly blocked or runny nose then Sinex for the BAD days only though My Ex used sinex religiously for months and i SWEAR she became dependant on it after 10 years she STILL needs a nasal spray to keep her nose clear so as i say only use Sinex on a bad day. I have a stinking cold myself but i can't let it stop me doing anything because if I can't do anything for my Son then he is stuck being that there is only me here. Turn the heating up a few notches and keep it a regular 70 degrees wear a T-Shirt when you go to bed to stop any cold air getting to your chest do DEEP breathing exersices in the morning when you wake to loosen the crud from your chest (it helps bark it up) Other than that it will just take a little time to shift. Oh and Drinking won't help so PM me for my address and you can send all your drink here to me :blink: LG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CARBINE Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 help got the mother of all colds :blink: have any of you chaps or chapessis got some good remidys for the man flew as i feel like poo thanks hoping sniff snifff cof cof splutter yuk help me please kirky :yp: Right, Im only gonna say this once and I want every body to try this(and it works) All colds and flu start in the throat the key is to kill it on the fist day and to do this eat to thick slices of raw onion and then on that first night of the infection take two paracetamol when going to bed. When you get up the next day do not stay in were it`s warm you need to be outside and keeping cool.If you miss the first day of the infection the virus will multiply so fast your antibodys have no chance of killing it and the onion trick will not work and one other point is how many of you go out and get a few drinks in and in the next day or two you start with a cold or flu the reason is alcohol not only relaxes the brain but also your anti-bodys and being in the pubs and clubs is where you will come into contact with a lot of people who are properly carrying the infection. Right now I`v said that 98% of you will think what load of **** but anything worth a try for nowt and how do I know it works well I`v being using it for 17 years and have never had one since.---sorry kirky alcohol is OUT! :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njc110381 Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 I use Echinacea tincture herbal stuff to boost the immune system, and eat lots of raw onion and hot indian curry. All my girlfriends family have been quite rough over xmas, and I've been there most of the time. I don't take any synthetic drugs and I'm fine, unlike the rest of them. Curry has cardamom seed, onion and garlic in it. All these will clear your nose nicely. Cardamom seeds have stronger antibacterial properties than carbolic (used in TCP) so I've been told!

whiskymac Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Zinc lozenges seem to stave it off for me when I have them. If I don't then a large Glenlivet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a similar vein (and absolutely no onions), gargle Aspro Clear, plenty of fluids (ribena) (you want to be ******* like a racehorse) and absolutely no booze - you will flush yourself out nicely and it will shift plenty quick - LG's tip about no drafts and keep your chest covered at night is also a good idea.

Lord Geordie Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 My gran always used pure honey lemon and a tot of brandy it used to make you feel like your chest was on fire but christ it kept your tubes clear another thing she used to give us a ginger wine in the winter it used to curl your sockes and shoes never mind your toes L G should know about these things being from the North east Yes my Mother used to make ginger wine it's Braw stuff for sure i LOVED it. She never made it for years but if i can get a recipie from her i may give it a go myself Great as a mixer for Spirits LG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
