Snuff and hem? The nose is actually “run”, and throat “grating”? Keyed to further the fact that whatever you do, still runs cold for 7 to 10 days?
Everyone has some “magical” tool, which most believe, and always apply when cold. For some this is vitamin C, for others – Echinacea or zinc, others do prefer chicken soup … Actually I think that whatever you choose, it really works?
We offer you a view of several experts:
First the bad news: “You can not cure a cold.” – At least according to Professor David Blandino, dean of the medical faculty at the University of Pennsylvania (University of Pennsylvania). However, it can ease symptoms and reduce the number of days in which to feel real bad. And a few natural remedies to help you achieve it:

Vitamin C – for decades, most people believe that once when the first symptoms of a cold take more vitamin C, it will help them cope with the disease still in its infancy.

Thus, many people tried to get rid of colds, obesity, cardiovascular and skin diseases, periodontitis and even cancer. But gradually the research showed that excessive use of vitamins (hypervitaminosis) may be more dangerous to health from lack of vitamins. Jane Brody (medical expert) and Dr. Stampfer, a professor at Harvard Medical School published an article a year ago, explicitly stated that the recommendations of a high intake of vitamins is “null and void based on evidence.” The quantity of vitamins to take adults and children depend on many factors including age, gender, health status. We must not forget the fact that some trace elements are able to interact with each other, but this is not always beneficial to the organism. Vitamin C is considered a known antioxidant, which rescued the cells from damage, but in combination with iron, it becomes oxidant, ie in the unit opposite effect. All this, according to Brody, makes us “members and volunteers of poorly controlled experiment.
