Can I stop this cold developing?

[tobee]

I haven't had a cold for some while (lucky me). I woke up this morning with a slightly sore throat and I've been sneezing a bit on and off. We're going away for holiday next week (uk). What remedies would you suggest to attempt to knock it on the head? Tia.

Berrocca works for me

Vicks first defence, high dose vitamin C, zinc, echinacea.... Any or all of these! Sometimes works for me, sometimes I succumb anyway

Ooh thanks. Never thought of berocca. I've been taking high doses of vit C with prescription iron for a couple of years now and I wondered if that was why no cold but I ran out of my high dose a few days ago and then I get these symptoms. Could be a coincidence.

Loads of rest, berroca, echinacea, drink lots and eat well.

If you do get it all these things will help your body recover faster.
