[quote name='1988RedT2' date='Aug 28 2003, 04:29 PM'] My recipe for speedy cold recovery combines a lot of these suggestions.
1) Take vitamin C, and E won't hurt, either
2) Drink tons of fluids--juice and water
3) Get a LOT of rest, eight or nine hours a night, at least
4) Don't exercise strenuously. Take a couple days off. Rest. A leisurely walk is okay.
5) Eat garlic, preferably raw garlic. It is good for you and will keep other sick people away from you because you will stink!

And the culinary uses of garlic are well-known and widespread. Just try making shrimp scampi, or guacamole, or mussels marinara without it.

Yeah, what they said. For the juice part of the equation, get a juicer and use it... a lot!
I tried garlic once. It was a rush, but kinda gross too. I regularly do a couple carrots, an apple, and a small piece of lemon. The lemon actually helps blend the flavors together. Like 1/16 slice or so. Anything more and it's overpowering. I haven't been sick in a long time.

1988RedT2 - Nailed it.
I just lived this myself. I had to go home at luch yesterday. I started taking vitamin C and echinatia (SP?) golden seal. It knocked it out of me.
Rest is the biggest thing your obviously run down. I slept from 12 hours last night. I also napped a lot.
