Need help with PDF files? Colds and flu The runny nose, sore throat or "bunged up" feeling of a cold is caused by one of many viruses, called rhinoviruses, that can infect the upper part of the breathing system (upper respiratory tract). Influenza - or flu - has similar symptoms but tends to be a more severe illness. In vulnerable people it can be dangerous. Fighting flu Although a cold can make you feel miserable, colds are usually "self limiting". This means the body fights off the infection and the cold is cured without the need for specific medical treatment. The flu season Most cases of flu in the UK occur between December and March. Typically, around 500 people die from flu each year. Several thousand more die as a result of the complications of flu. This can rise to 20-30,000 when there is an epidemic of the illness.

by Dr. J. Glenn Knox BA, DC author of the 344 page book from the LIFEKNOX JOURNAL published by Lifeknox Publishing PO BOX 65130 Vancouver, WA 98665 Order it now! Click here to order online! Colds and flu are commonly viral illnesses, in fact colds are by definition viral illnesses, rhino viruses of which there are several thousand types. What is the current medical treatment for colds? Antihistamines, cough suppressants, decongestants and other treatments of the symptoms of infection are used, but very little treatment is directed toward the cause of the cold. Rest in bed, keeping warm and plenty of fluids is still recognized as important. Sometimes even antibiotics are used, even though we all know that antibiotics never work on viruses. Rhino-virus infections usually last about three or four days. The lining of the respiratory tract is affected and the surface is damaged by the virus. Then bacteria, which may be susceptible to antibiotics, move into the damaged tissue and set up secondary infections. These cause the yellow discharge of infected material from the nose that can last for weeks. Today if I had a cold I would try a health food store first. Even if I had pneumonia I might try a health food store first. Health food stores sell large quantities of vitamin C, Echinacea, and other herbal and homeopathic remedies for colds which often do have some effect on viral diseases. Vitamin C and A are certainly proven to be enhancers of the immune system, and many herbs and homeopathic remedies have clinical evidence of efficacy. I am not suggesting that you refuse to or do not see a medical physician for pneumonia. There are still many strains of this disease, and many others, that antibiotics cure. It is just that there are many that they do not. The belief that health and freedom of disease could come from doses of antibiotics was wrong 50 years ago. It is even more wrong today.

With reported annual sales of more than $300 million, echinacea is one of the most popular medicinal herbs used by people to treat colds.

Nightly News Being sick with a cold is nothing to sneeze at, but new research finds that taking the popular herbal remedy echinacea does nothing to treat or prevent it. The federally funded study was what fans and foes of such substances say they have long needed - rigorous, scientific testing. It found that patients who took an echinacea plant extract fared no better than those who took a dummy treatment. "Our study ... adds to the accumulating evidence that suggests that the burden of proof should lie with those who advocate this treatment," wrote Dr. Ronald Turner of the University of Virginia School of Medicine, who led the study, which appeared in Thursday's New England Journal of Medicine.

Skip navigation Travel Fall Travel Golf Travel ... Most Popular NBC NEWS MSNBC TV Today Show Nightly News Meet the Press ... Business Travel Avoid in-flight colds Study shows one in five passengers comes down with a cold By By Michael Conlon The flight is packed, the bone-dry air is recirculating in the cabin and someone five rows away is having a coughing fit. What can a traveler do to guard against something as common as the everyday cold or as stealthy as SARS in the elbow-to-elbow confinement of an airline cabin? There seems to be general agreement, according to a number of experts consulted, that air travelers are at higher risk for colds and other microbial or viral infections, perhaps simply because of the close quarters involved. The suggested countermeasures are simple, ranging from washing your hands and not touching your face to bringing along your own pillow and perhaps using saline solutions to cleanse the nose. A study from the University of California at San Francisco published last year found that roughly one in five passengers came down with a cold within one week of a flight. That is far higher than the rate at which colds strike the general population at any given time, according to Scott Gold, a physician and co-founder of the New York Sinus Center.

Member Login Home Men's Athlete's foot ... Contact Us Home Remedies for Cold There are more than 150 viruses that can cause colds, these viruses infect the upper respiratory tract and they thrive in cold temperature, there for is very common to catch a cold during fall or winter. Some times colds are mistaken for Flu, but there are very distinct differences between the two, Flu is a lot more severe with fever that ranges from 102 to 104 F. while in colds is very rear to develop a fever. Colds last for about a week or so, but if treated in the early stages it can be reduced to a few days. In the United States $1 billion a year are wasted in nonprescription drugs for colds and coughs but often this medicines do not help the cold itself but the symptoms which are necessary tools for the body to heal itself. An example would be, taking an analgesic for pain and fever such as Aspirin or Ibuprofen, colds develop very little fever if any, a higher fever may be indication of a more serious problem, taking these products can mask this condition. When our nose runs, is because the body is creating mucus, a secretion that traps the virus and expels it from the body, by taking an antihistamine we decrease this secretion thus keeping the virus inside. Natural remedies help the immune system fight the virus, vitamins help boost our defenses, and herbs help reduce pain etc. We recommend : At the first sign of a cold: Take Vitamin C and Zinc lozenges this can help stop the cold from going through the entire process.
