You're not a doctor, or a nutritionist. You're just some idiot.

I'm not going to offer any advice.

I want you to suffer...

and be miserable.

as a kid, my grandmother was a fan of the whiskey/lemon/honey thing.
i dont think she mixed it with boiling water....

i use pretty much the same remedy, except i dont mix it with lemon or honey

[Timmy Tucker]

Try this.
Take a mug fill with water.
Micro-wave till boiling.
Toss all the water in a dirty hippie's face.
Then finish off your favorite bottle of whiskey.
It will not cure your cold, but for a few hours you WILL feel great. And it is cheaper than most of the over the counter patchouli oils.

Have you tried the breast-cancer cure?

[Howie]

Squirrel soup?

Not even close.

1/2 pint of white liquor
1 tablespoon of pepper
1 teaspoon of salt
1 tablespoon of fresh crushed ginger
Fill mostly rest of the way with honey
Shake very well

Take a couple shots and go to bed.

You're a bloody crazy person.  Oh, and what the hell is white liquor?  I guess I do prefer white liquor when I'm sick.  Hold the white.

White lightning! Basically sour mash that hasn't had a chance to mellow in charred oak barrels and become whisk(e)y.

Cures whatever ails ya. Including your ability to see.

clear liquor for a fever

brown liquor for everything else.

Suck it up. I'm allergic to all cold medications (acetominophine, which means I can't enjoy the narcotic fun of Nyquil) so I just take... nothing. I'm doing my part to prevent superbugs, are you?

I don't care if you've been taking concentrated oregano pills for ten years and haven't gotten sick in that time.

I don't care if you mega dose on Vitamin C (Unless you're talking about the pop star. Rowr.) and you feel great.

Please, when I'm sick, take you're home remedies, which are statistically crap as they've only ever worked for you, turn them, sideways, and stuff them up yer rear.

Soooo . . . What you're saying is that in three years when I am a Doctor I can tell you what to do and you might actually do it?

Don't get your hopes up.

You can have my snake oil when you pry it from my cold dead hands. Off course if I'm cold and dead then it probably didn't work out so well for me.

[Popeye the Sailor]

Next time I hear someone offer a home remedy like "I eat three teaspoons of honey and I don't get sick" I think I'll offer the sage "I haven't wiped my ass in 6 weeks and haven't been sick since".


Maybe someone will fall for it.

I was taught alcohol kills germs right? so drink it. and stay hydrated with water, so my remedy has always been vodka + hot tea, or Bourbon and hot tea.

There was a guy who wrote a book on how to cleasne your body and be healthy. he was on CNN and got made fun of on live TV. His home remedies included STRANGE shit like using house hold cleaning products, or just random shit to cure things like arthritis.

people are make the beast with two backsing crazy.

I sleep and drink when im sick.

I knew a chick who tried to "cleanse"  her body by drinking only (no eating at all) water with maple syrup, lemon juice and cayanne pepper in it.  She did it for two weeks and lost 20lbs
