I think I’m coming down with a cold. Gonna take some elderberry extract and see if I can head it off at the pass — which means, of course, that I’ll have a headache tomorrow. (No one else I know has this problem with elderberry. Oh well!)

Recommendation: Cold-Eze zinc lozenges are not only comforting, they may actually shorten the time you suffer…
I can’t stand the taste of them, though. They make me want to puke, I’d rather have a cold.
Try this ancient Ayurvedic remedy: turmeric milk.
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon turmeric powder
1/4 teaspoon ginger powder (or 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger)
4 black peppercorns, crushed
dash of cinnamon (optional)
honey or other sweetener (optional)
Place all ingredients in a saucepan on medium heat and bring to a boil. Simmer for five minutes, stirring frequently. Sweeten to taste. Pour into a mug (if you used fresh ginger, strain)and drink hot.
