Default good remedies for colds

i have the worst cold of all time

i heard running sea salt and water in nose can help
i never heard of this until recently and it seems to help

very cheap and theres lots of money in otc cold medicine which does little and we never hear about old ways

tv just talks about nonesense all day

I do Zicam (the cold remedy gel swabs) and they help me SO much. Plus I do herbs that boost your immune system.

My all time fave - a hot toddy. I'm out of whiskey or I'd be having one right now. I wonder if tequila would work as well?
