Break out the swimsuit, coolers and … Cold-EEZE Cold Remedy?

Colleges and universities all over the nation are either already on or about to go on Spring Break. But while “fun in the sun” may be the only thing on the mind of a college kid and catching a cold the furthest thing from it, it’s important to remember that we’re right at the peak of cold and flu season.  I know this is true since the three members in my family have all come down with colds. Good thing that I just received Cold-EEZE to review! I still have my cold but I have to honestly say that the symptoms are so much more bearable. I have a feeling that this cold will be much more short-lived! You can nip your colds in the bud at the first sign of symptoms with Cold-EEZE Cold Remedy, formulated with zinc gluconate to help shorten the duration of the cold by nearly half. The new Cold-EEZE Cold Remedy Plus Natural Multi-Symptom Relief Cold & Flu QuickMelts is a great one to try because it helps treat both cold and flu symptoms like coughing, sore throat and chest congestion. I like this one because it has helped my throat and I am having less coughing.

Do-It-Yourself Home Cold Remedies
Brought to you by: Cold-EEZE Cold Remedy

  1. Stuffy nose? Use steam for relief.
    You don’t need a fancy humidifier to ease congestion (though it can be convenient!). Slowly breathing in steam from a pot of boiling water can work wonders! Just make sure to be very careful — you don’t want to burn your nose!
  2. Make it spicy.
    Incorporate lots of cinnamon, nutmeg, rosemary, cloves, pepper and ginger into your sick-day diet. Spices are natural ways to help boost your immune system and fight off viruses and diseases. Some other ingredients to include? Garlic, honey and coconut oil. Check out some more natural cold medicine.
  3. Try chicken noodle soup.
    A nice hot bowl of chicken noodle soup might be just what you need to fight off that virus. It’s a delicious home remedy that’s medically backed to help ease cold symptoms. Check out some of our Cold-EEZE Cold Remedy-approved tasty recipes by visiting us on Pinterest, and make sure to include plenty of veggies!
  4. Make your own nasal spray.
    It’s easy and takes a matter of minutes! Simply mix 3 teaspoons of iodide-free salt and 1 teaspoon of baking soda and then add 1 teaspoon of the mixture to 8 ounces of warm boiled water to create your own nasal spray solution. Use a bulb syringe to gently squirt the mixture into each of your nostrils, while holding the other one closed, and letting them drain. This will help clear nasal congestion as well as remove virus particles and bacteria!
  5. And of course, drink plenty of fluids.
    It’s so important to stay hydrated, especially when you’re sick. By drinking plenty of fluids regularly, you can help break up congestion and ease a sore throat. Some great options include water, herbal teas, natural juices (no sugar!) and ginger ale. Also be sure to check out some of our favorite healthy hydration recipes.
