Nourishing a cold can sometimes be frustrating because it seems that no matter what you try nothing has that work right away effect. However there are some key things that you can do to ease the symptoms and cut your cold short.

Diet has allot to play in weather you catch a cold or not, if you are following a high raw lifestyle your immune system would be so high that it would be virtually impossible for you to get sick.

Tea Therapy: Teas like Peppermint and Echinacea tea are soothing to the throat and clear congestion.  

If you are running a fever try a simple blend of ice, agave and one sliced and squeezed lemon, this is a delightful way to pamper yourself.

 

Purchase one bag of oranges and cut some into wedges this will double as your cold fighting nutritious snack. Also each morning you can also nurse your cold by juicing three oranges.

Fave remedy(from the Caribbean) : Lemon,Honey and a lil' Rum with a dash of Cayenne of Freshly ground pepper. It has to be concentrated..like an elixir. Good stuff.
