Take Echinacea For Your Next Cold

November 10th, 2008

There’s no cure for the common cold, and over-the-counter cold medication is no exception. Why bother using over-the-counter medications to relieve cold symptoms when they have so many annoying side effects? Many cold medicines will make you feel drowsy or light-headed, and who wants that? The next time you’re getting a cold, try echinacea from Solgar instead. Echinacea is a natural, herbal immune system booster that won’t leave you with dizzying side effects. I find Vitamin C also to be effective at staving off cold symptoms. Try echinacea and Vitamin C together to give that next oncoming cold a one-two punch. You might just put cold medicines back on the shelf permanently.
