Please give me your best cold cures

[AbigailisPartiedOut]

I have been fighting a shitty cold for 3 days. I work in hospitality so can't take time off as it's our busiest time and we are already short staffed (its not covid and i am hand washing and using hand sanitizer like a demon, and, im not serving food) . So far I have done all of the following;

Cold and flu capsules
Inhaling steam with olbas oil
Cough mixture
Ginger, turmeric and lemon tea
Extra multi vitamins
Soup
Resting as much as possible

I feel like crap and really need to feel better as tomorrow and Saturday will be stupidly busy with christmas parties. Please hit me with your weird and wonderful cold cures.

High dose vitamin C, zinc and vitamin D. But you have to start it from the moment you get the first little tickle of something. Dh has been sick for, no joke, 3 months, with dc sick off and on too. I have cancer and am immunocompromised. I haven’t gotten it once. I’m religious about starting the above as soon as anyone sneezes.

It will still help though if you are already ill. Otherwise, it’s fluids and rest really. You have to give your body time to recover.
