Natural Remedies for Cold

Most people “catch” the common cold by being exposed to it from a family member, friend, co-worker or children if you are around children that are exposed to it. The common cold is really a mild to moderate viral attack that can leave you feeling low on energy with mind fog as well as cough, sneezing, sinus congestion or runniness, headache and mild body aches. Natural Remedies for Cold and Flu can help you prevent, treat and get relief from the common cold symptoms without needing to resort to harmful vaccines.

If you visit a hospital or doctors office you're at a higher risk for catching a cold. If you've gotten any vaccines or are around those that have had them recently, make sure you keep your natural immunity boosted so you can fight it off before it causes you to feel down and out. The cold and flu vaccines actually make it more likely you get the cold or flu and weaken your immune system. See: Is Flu Vaccine Safe? Use the natural remedies for cold and flu relief shown at the bottom of this page to protect yourself and your family.

Common Cold Virus

The common cold virus name is coronaviruses or rhinoviruses. The common cold symptoms are caused by host of different strains of the common cold virus. Most are of the Rhinovirus type (rhino referring to your nose), with a few of them being of the Coronavirus or Carno virus type (corona referring to your head or crown of your head) and they can affect both people as well as animals.

The Rhinovirus causes sinus congestion or the constant runny nose that you need to have a box of tissues by your side till it passes. The Coronavirus causes that plus a sore throat and mild headache and body aches. The common cold is a viral infection (different treatment than a bacterial infection) that usually affects the upper respiratory tract (nose, sinuses, throat, inner ear, lungs.)

It is sometimes called nasopharyngitis, rhino pharyngitis or acute coryza. The cold typically lasts about a week, with it being most severe the first two days and then lessening. You can cut down the severity and duration (length) of your cold symptoms by using the natural remedies for cold and flu at the bottom of this article.

Cold vs Flu Symptoms

How to tell the difference between Cold vs Flu Symptoms? Both the cold and flu are respiratory ailments caused by viruses, although they are different ones. They are very different from bacteria infections (they are many times smaller) so antibiotics will not affect viral infections at all. In fact getting antibiotics may actually do more harm as it will weaken your immune system. That is definitely not what we want. We need to strengthen our immune system naturally so it can not only stop your flu or cold symptoms but prevent them from coming back.

Viral Flu Symptoms usually appear very quickly (within 3-6 hours) and consist of a fever (sudden onset flu fever), body aches, dry cough, and extreme tiredness. Viral Cold symptoms are less severe and people experience a stuffy nose, productive cough, slight tiredness, and limited body aches. Both can be transmitted by air (cough, sneeze, talking) so unless you are keeping your immune system boosted, avoid people with the visible signs of cold or flu. Use the natural remedies for cold and flu below and you will cut the severity and duration by a lot. 

How to Prevent Colds

How to Prevent Colds the natural way. The holistic method for prevention of common cold symptoms takes a common sense approach. If you currently have it, then cover your mouth with your sleeve or handkerchief when you sneeze or cough. Avoid using your hands as you may shake someone's hand, touch a doorknob or glass and pass it around and have a lot of others come down with it.

If you notice someone who has it coughing or sneezing without covering up, then keep your distance, unless you have built a core of solid natural immunity, which I highly recommend you do. Don't depend on antibiotics which only work against bacterial infections and make your body antibiotic resistant anyway. Same with vaccines, they rarely work and usually cause you to end up with the exact thing you are trying to avoid, and they can be very harmful and even lethal. Always use the natural remedies for cold and flu prevention and relief!

I always recommend using the natural remedies for cold and flu relief and some natural precautions like using some natural Immune Boosting Herbs before I go on a vacation, to visit a sick friend, out where there are lots of children or where you are going to be in a large group of people, particularly from other regions (they will have virus strains your body may be unfamiliar with and if you're not protected, you can catch it and have a harder time getting over it.)
