I've got a bad head cold and it's slowly spreading to my chest... starting to really annoy me as I don't really have time to be ill... Does anyone have any home cures they use to speed up their recovery at all? All I seem to be doing is drinking ribena alot lol... Help?

by head cold I take it as some running nose and mucus in the nose and ear, and a little drowsiness. I am no mdeical person , so take this as freindly advise and do your normal steps that worked before.
Each person knows what has worked for them before and that is most important. If I was having a head cold first thing for me is to get some good vitamin C drink, like you do with ribena. Need to replenish the loss of bodlily fluid. Then my preference is some very fresh raw vegetable to my taste like brocolli or cabbage and to a less extent carrot (because it tends on the hard side). I would chop these up and put some salt and little olive oil to go. I take them uncooked. Why I take the vegetable is that for me it works. Oh some tomato will go well too.
I do not prefer oranges or lemons in these cases as they may cause some irritation to my throat in such instances. If they do not cause you trouble - these may be good to add to your fresh fruit combo too.
The salt - is very helpful - do not leave it out.
