[Bump]

one of the things that I do in the event I feel a cold or something coming on. I make myself a very strange tea, but I think it works because it always seems to help with the cold or whatever it is that's bothering me.

brace yourself, you're probably going to think this is disgusting. But I don't care about how it tastes, I just want to feel better in those situations.

Kombucha green tea + 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper + 1 teaspoon or ground ginger + lemon

and then I suck on a zinc vitamin, the actual vitamin not one of those cough drops with zinc in it. Suck it, let it absorb in my mouth, gargle it and swallow.

Zinc always seems to work. The aftertaste is pretty bad and will last hours, but it 100% helps with any sore throat or something like that.
