I, too, had a cold recently. Actually, my whole family got it and they were SICK! I'm usually the one who gets it the worst and lasts the longest, but not this time. Changes ... I kept exercising even though it was hard to get out of bed, I took extra vitamin C, and I stuck to my low carb woe ...
I still had the sore throat and headache, and had to blow my nose frequently, but it didn't turn nearly as grungy and ucky as the others ...
I like to use that old fashioned vapo-rub ... it keeps my nasal ways clear at night and seems soothing (I guess because it was Mom always made me use when I was a kid). And since it's not ingested ... no carbs! Also, saline nose drops ... be careful, though, they're addictive.
