*Take Echinacea. Pills, lozenges, tea, extract...whatever you can tolerate! And take a lot of it!

*Emergen-C. It's about $15 for a box but it lasts a while and it definitely cures you. It's a vitamin and mineral complex powder. They come in a bunch of flavors. My 'recipe' goes as follows:
Take a water bottle or good sized drinking glass. Pour in 2 packets of Emergen-C. Squirt in 3 dropper-fuls of Echinacea extract. Add water. Stir well and enjoy. =P Take 3 times a day.

*Vitamin complexes. Especially ones that are made for immunity. Deep Defense and Wellness Formula are ones I use. I don't know their brand names, I'll look when I get home.

If you use all of these liberally as soon as you notice cold symptoms, you should be fine in a day or two.

Hope this is useful to anyone!
Ill have to buy all of these. 25 have always had a problem with the driver getting sick at competitions. Not just normal colds though, all really weird things, that you dont even think you can get.

Anything that I post is an opinion from my own mind. Some may agree with it, others may not. However do not negatively associate anyone else, including any team I work with, with my opinion.
