Answer:

Well, you can't really "cure" a cold...it has to run its course but I know a few things that may help and have helped me! Usually when you feel a cold coming on you should eat a clove of garlic(once a day for a few days)....not the garlic pills out on the market, I mean RAW garlic. You can cut it up and put on a slice of bread with butter if you'd like. Your breath will not be that great! I also get apple cider vinegar (about a Tbs or 2) with some warm water and honey. Sip it through the day. Vinegar is also excellent as a gargle for sore throats.

Best way to stop a cold is to get in at the first symptoms - have a warm bath with some essential oils of eucalyptus, tea tree and lemon (about 2-3 drops of each). Have a good soak, then when you are out & wrapped up warm, make a hot lemon and honey drink (the juice of a lemon + honey to taste in a cup of hot water), take some vitamin C and put yourself to bed for a good rest. 9 times out 10 I find the cold disappears overnight when I do this.
