Unhappy Getting a cold!! NOOOO!

Hi ladies!
Feeling the early effects of a cold. Does anyone know a good way of nipping it in the bud so to speak? I really can not afford to have one right now I'm really busy!

Thanks!
Madeleine

I always do vitamin c and echinecia (spell?) Careful not too much, both can upset your stomach.

I swear by the Zicam nasal swabs. I stayed away from them for a long time, because I thought, ew! Who wants to shove a swab up their nose?!? But it's easy and painless--you just dab the swab right inside your nose every 3-4 hours hours. I haven't had a full-blown cold since I discovered these!
