| "I predict lots of sugar water with bright colors to make me feel better after a few weeks of hawking, coughing, sneezing, and expectorating." |
OK, a real PhD, but I spend more time with the cold issues than many physicians do. "Try this, or that new one."
- Several apples should be eaten every day of the week. They are superb for softening phlegm, and have many other benefits.
- Fresh pineapples are equally good but not so likely to be used in volume - hard to explain waving a butcher knife in the employee lunch room.
- Juices are simply colored sugar water, including Paul Neuman's Own - snicker - using fattening corn sugar, no food fiber (the body's slow-mo manufacturing device).
- Moisture in the air helps from a humidifier.
- Wake up to the nightmare of expensive and useless cough drops, syrupy cough syrup, opioid syrup, and drying antihistamines (Benadryl, etc). If you really cherished vitamins, you would major in fresh greens, fruits, vegetables, and beans. Those little vitamin pills are a joke and more expensive than drag-racing near a police station.
- Cow's milk supplements often use sugars plus animal proteins - and are way out of the price range for humanoids.
