There are some good threads on this topic in the alternative health forum.
For me, I take elderberry syrup and oil of oregano at the first sign of sickness. I supplement with Vitamin D and Vitamin C (extended release is a good option) throughout cold and flu season. Probiotics are another good idea.
Garlic, onion, cayenne, ginger, lemon/lime, honey, various herbs are all good foods to utilize if you're sick or getting sick. You can add them to soup or to tea. Very beneficial.
Pineapple juice works for coughs as does dark chocolate (really dark) and real honey.
Capsules, most do well on 200mg daily. Good starting with 100mg once twice daily, my favorite brand now is olympian labs and it's available everywhere and health food stores and online. Do your research as there is tons of info on this antioxidant.
Check out the Alt Med area here as I've been posting about Grape Seed Ex for the 2 yrs I've been here.

Just checked out a very helpful thread over there ! Thank you
Anyone big on Colloidal Silver...I have tons, but don't take it! Ha!
I was big on C.S. when I found out about it in 1995 and even got into making my own for myself and friends and now when I want it around I buy a bottle. My grape seed ex has kept me healthy for years.
I purchased a couple boxes of Oscillo a couple yrs ago when we get all the "fear" instilled in us about how bad the flu is going to be yada yada yada, and I have not had to open the boxes two years later. But when I do it works Every Time...no flu of any significance from me since I was 18 in 1956. the big bad Asian Flu...and bad it was but I survived. Homeopathy is the "cure" all over the world but the U.S., wonder why????
Haven't been sick in years. No flu shots ever. My 5 recommendations:
1. Good rest
2. Raw Vitamin D3
3. Lots of water
4. Organic garlic
5. Garden of Life Probiotic
