American Fan:
Yay for a home day! Boo to being sick! At least you can "talk" here, lol. Rest, lots of water and tea, work, repeat.
My rec for a great tea for colds is Traditional Medicinals Organic Herbal Cold Care. Or this one for throats.
There's other brands with similar results. As soon as I feel smth coming I drink 3 cups a day, with some honey. It makes a huge difference! But I also drink a few autoimmune smoothies per week.
@RXinw....sorry you aren't feeling well! I hope it's nothing too serious. @American Fan, has given you some remedies to take advantage of, hoping it works.
If I can add my two pennies...I recommend gargling with warm salt water, drinking warm liquids (teas) honey, ginger, and lemon or peppermint or chamomile (this will help you sleep). I also recommend my favorite throat lozenges....Halls Throat Soothers in Cherry or Luden's Wild Cherry throat lozenges.
Anyways, feel better soon.
