If you take it with zinc and Elderberry it works even faster, you'll hard even know you had a cold... and if you are really quick and take it at the first sign of a scratchy throat you may feel sleepy for a few days, but that's about it... NOW makes a elderberry, zinc and Echinecia lozenge and you can suck on one every couple of hours. Always keep a bottle in our cabinet.
Elderberry has always worked for me, but it's getting harder to find.
My mom uses the Elderberry syrup, she says it works great. She also likes the zinc. We bought some at the witch doc...I mean the health food store last week. Will be trying some of the lozenges soon.
There are so many vitamins and pills on the health food store shelves, how does anyone know what concoction to take for what?
