I caught a cold last night. My throat was sore and my nose is stuffed. My friend advises that I eat pomelo. There are much Vitamin C and B2 and they can help me recover.

Is it real?

You can eat pomelo. VC is good for curing the cold. But you can not count on it. Some medicine is needed if necessary.

Hope you recover ASAP.

PS: Do not forget to drink as much water as you can.

And more water.

If you are ill, just have a rest to get over it. Better do some sports after you fully recovered.

Thank you, Jimmy and OK4KK. I am feeling better now. The weather is too dry and cold here. Like OK4KK suggested, I need to drink more water.

Hope you feel better Xiaoxiao (and a lovely name - same as a model friend...)
If you are talking about VC, then Kivi and lemon would be the best choice...

Thank you, Hearbeat. I am fully recovered now. Kivi is ok but I do not like lemon. It is too sour. Orange and tangerine also have VC. I'd love to eat them

Listen, I have done this, recovered from 2 or more (not serious) cold I have caught in recent few months, but took no medicine at all, just drink 10 cups or more boiling water, almost every day. Success belongs to the persevering .

Haha, I normally drink more than 8 cups of hot water / tea everyday and I swim a lot so I'm healthy. But still I eat lots of fruit everyday too. I guess if you want to be healthy, just do it everyday but not wait until you catch a cold...

You must have recovered, right? My colleague told me another secret prescription. Buy some oranges and squeeze them to get the juice. Mix it with some hot water and go to sleep after you drink it. She said it was very effective.

Thanks, Jimmyb. I am fully recovered. But my sister caught a cold. She coughed seriously. Actually she took some medicine but it didn't work well. How to stop coughing?
