This is not a sponsored post, this is just my experience, strength and hope! For over 25 years I have taken cold-eeze with zinc whenever I had a sore throat. I would not travel without it, just in case I got a scratchy throat while away, I used to go to Europe 2x a year, I always had a supply with me, and still do.
Now, at the first sign of a sore throat, I start spraying the above cold-eeze with zinc right into the back of my throat. It fights the germs remarkably well. I swear by it as they say. You can look up all the medical mumbo jumbo, you can check with Dr. Oz who has mentioned this (well after my own personal discovery!), do what you must. But know that this works for me.
I also start drinking black elderberry extract at the first sign of flu symptoms.. Mine is from the Vitamin Shoppe and called Sambucus. I get some for my son at CVS called Sambucol. Again, this homeopathic remedy works for me, I have been using if for years! Dr. Oz also mentioned this, a decade after I discovered it!
You can google all of this on the Internet if you don’t believe me. I had a rough head cold in April and I am telling you that the above combo cut the duration of my cold down to 4 days, these used to last over a week for me!

I’ll have to try these. Though I swear getting my tonsils out at the ripe old age of 41 has helped my immune system more than anything!

I’ve never heard of these products but you can bet I’m going to remember them! I’m rarely sick but when I am, it seems like its always really bad (or at least I think so…lol).
Ronni Keller says
I have a friend who swears by black elderberry! Seems to work well for her as she really isn’t a sickly very often!
Brandie (@ Home Cooking Memories) says
I totally believe you on this! I’ve used similiar products like you mentioned and they helped tremendously. I don’t think I’ve seen this oral spray of Cold-eeze, will have to look for it.
