Lots of Zinc. Kroger has a Zinc cold remedy. It works
every time. I see y'all are in TX. So am I. I had a
horrible sore throat and cold back in Dec. I started
right away on the Zinc and it took care of the cold
symptoms. However, I had to get an antibiotic for
my sore throat. That worked, though. The reason I
noted that we are both in TX is because there is a terrible
bug going around here that starts with a cold and sore
throat, and ends up taking about 3 weeks to get rid of.
Lots of people I know have had it.
