I'm sure the socialists and their p[als in Big Pharma will find some way to squelch this.

I wonder what role the common cold has in keeping our immune systems functioning properly...seems like trying to stop everything that can inconvenience us may end up causing more harm...seems like our natural defenses are more adaptable than a lot of the vaccines which only seem to affect certain strains of what they are used against.

I take 500 mg Vitamin C and it never progresses beyond a sniffle.

Highly undervalued...
There isn’t an illness known to man that this won’t stomp out in mere minutes.

You’re absolutely right. It drains our sinuses, makes our lungs work overtime, and makes momma cook up that chicken soup. And you get a little extra rest...which may be needed in the usual cold time....winter.

An old Space 1999 episode dealt with that question. IIRC, the Alphans were more susceptible to infections, etc because they lived in a sterile environment which had weakened their immune system.

Thieves oil.
If I feel a cold coming on, we head over to the nearest Pho seller and have a bowl of pho. Yum! It works every time.

The Echinacea and zinc in natural remedies like Zicam in combination with 500-1000 mg of Vita C works great, too-I’m one of those who believes we humans have overused drugs, hand sanitizers, allergy remedies, etc to the point that germs are resistant and our immune systems weakened. I’m glad I have stayed away from the drugs, including OTC allergy remedies-I do keep hand sanitizer in the console of my vehicle-there are sometimes icky things on jobsites that son’t need to leave with you...

I’m not adverse to having a short cold from time to time.
I very seldom get sick, so it’s an interesting experience when I do.
There are times when I go literally years without any ailments, even minor ones.
