There's nothing worse than feeling a cold coming on, when your throat starts to get scratchy, your head pounds, or your nose is suddenly stuffed up. The impending doom is enough to make anyone nuts, and you want to try and manage your sickness before it turns into a full-on cold. Luckily, there are plenty of drug-free remedies to help prevent colds from spreading or to nip them in the bud, and they're all available on Amazon! Stock up on these natural remedies for Summer cold season!
Gaia Herbs Oil of Oregano
This editor swears by Gaia Herbs Oil of Oregano ($28). If you feel the tiniest twinge of a cold coming on, take some oil of oregano. The actual oil smells disgusting, so these pills are a saving grace.
NOW Eucalyptus Essential Oil
Take a hot bath or shower and add a few drops of NOW Eucalyptus Essential Oil ($11) to the steam. It'll open up your nasal passages and soothe a frustrating head cold.
Himalayan Chandra Neti Pot Complete Sinus Cleansing System Starter Kit
This is an oldie but a goodie. The Himalayan Chandra Neti Pot Complete Sinus Cleansing System Starter Kit ($24) comes with a classic neti pot, salt, and essential oils so you can really clear your sinuses.
Kor Shots Organic Cold Pressed Ginger Juice Shot
Again, go with me on this one. Kor Shots Organic Cold Pressed Ginger Juice Shots ($75 for a 24-pack) are really effective. If you feel a cold coming on, start taking one of these shots every morning. The ginger not only makes you feel cleansed but also helps reduce inflammation.
Nature's Way Organic Lozenge, Elderberry Zinc
Zinc is one of the most popular and effective ways to heal a sore throat. We like these Nature's Way Organic Lozenges, Elderberry Zinc ($11 for a 2-pack).
Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar
Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar ($9) is a cure-all. Drink it in the morning to jump-start your metabolism, or anytime you're feeling under the weather. You can also gargle it, but don't drink a straight shot. Dilute 1-2 tbsp of ACV with a glass of water. We also like it with a little lemon and honey.
Emergen-C Immune+ System Support Dietary Supplement
This is the classic, but it's actually potent. Throw packets of Emergen-C Immune+ System Support Dietary Supplements ($10) in your purse or pocket so you can have some vitamin C wherever you go. Vitamin C strengthens your immune system and helps with illness prevention.
