∙ 13y agoIt doesn't cure the cold, exactly, but it can help you recover faster by providing extra support for your immune system. What really seems to work, though, is zinc. Lots of zinc. Take it with some chicken soup or crackers though, because on an empty stomach, zinc can make you nauseated.
In the 1990s they used to sell these zinc lozenges. Basically just nasty-tasting candies with zinc in them. They were called "Cold-Eeze" lozenges and were promised to get rid of your cold twice as fast. They worked perfectly well, but it's cheaper, and just as effective, to buy a bottle of zinc tablets from the vitamin aisle.
