Winter time flu

(1/4) > >>

Noner:
Yeah I got it. I haven't been at a computer in about 5 days.

I got all kinds of advise on how to beat it. My mother came over and made me breath into a pot of boiling water. Other people say green tea, vitamin C and E.

But my grandpa had the best advise. Some cough syrup and a shot of wiskey.

That got me thinking.........what's the weirest cure for a cold that you were given?

The best one I got was to but tea bags on your eyes to help your sinuses.

I don't think I ever had a truely weird cure for a cold.  I swear by hot todies (I am not sure if that is how it spelled) a cup of tea with honey, lemon and a shot or two ;D of whiskey.  I found a whiskey that is prefect for them too, it's called Yukon Jack, but any o' whiskey will do it.  My mon use to make me do the pot of boiling water with a towel over my head too.

PigPen:
Hot Tea, Whiskey, Lemon and Honey...yummmmmmmm

Don't know if it works, but it's easier to justify the whiskey when it's "medicinal"

ar3inc:
It real does work to some extent.  I'm sure there is some actual product that does the same thing, but not nearly as tasty.  So hottie it is for me come flu time.  Medicine is much more effective when you take it.

PBurke:
best fix for sinuses i ever found was a dry climate. but living here in the rainforest my sinuses always bother me. one day i will get back to the rockies. :'(
