Some good natural remedies for the common cold include zinc, vitamin D, Astragalus root, garlic, vitamin C, honey, echinacea, ginseng root, ginger, elderberry and eucalyptus steam.
Echinacea is an herbal source of niacin, chromium, iron, manganese, selenium, silicon, and zinc
If u want, can also...Zinc helps to absorb the vitamin C into our bodyyy........So it is better for u to take vitamin C with Zinc. hope that will help.....
If you have real aloe vera juice, you can add vitamin C to it and zinc. These are both known to help greatly with a cough and cold.

Although there are alternative treatments for cold symptoms, such as echinacea and zinc, parents should consult their health practitioner about the appropriateness of using these treatments in very young children.
There is vitamin A (but no vitamin Z .. just the mineral Zinc).
Vitamin C, Vitamin B12, Vitamin E, Selenium, and zinc can help improve the men's chances for conception as these are essential anti oxidants, and also help improve and maintain the health of the male reproductive system.
Zinc does not deplete vitamin a. Rather, zinc is needed to make retinol binding protein, which mobilizes vitamin a from the liver so that your body can utilize it.

It' wont heal u cos u should take vitamin C b4 u get infected not after! however it reduce cold symptoms to 50% bout the rate u wrote, vitamin C is not dangerous with big amounts but with LIMITS! there is a study say if u take 500M*4 times a day ur cold will be 50% less, so u was right! if u mean it like 4 times a day so I think sound good based upon the study!
This is a topic that I've found very interesting over the past few years. I used to be a very big skeptic over the use of supplements such as Echinacea, Vitamin C and Zinc. However, I recently discovered that I was completely wrong. Zinc is your best bet, but you have to be careful. Most Zinc lozenges don't do anything to help you. They may taste great, like candy even, but candy never helped us with our colds. Rather, be sure the Zinc you're ingesting in a lozenge comes in the form of Zinc Acetate, not Zinc Gluconate, as most commercial lozenges do. Lozenges that contain a few milligrams of Zinc, not "as Zinc Glucomate" will also do you well. I'm my research, the cheaper the Zinc lozenge, the more likely it is to contain Zinc Gluconate. Go for the mid-range prices and read the label. I've found what I use to be very effective and I get mine at Walgreens. It is their brand of Zinc Lozenges that I find work for me.
