The Common Cold, although not fatal is most cases, sometimes feels like death is imminent!  I want to inform everyone about how the Common Cold is spread and to give some relief tips for all who are unfortunate enough to catch the Common Cold.

According to the Mayo Clinic, "A cold virus enters your body through your mouth, eyes or nose. The virus can spread through droplets in the air when someone who is sick coughs, sneezes or talks. But it also spreads by hand-to-hand contact with someone who has a cold or by sharing contaminated objects, such as utensils, towels, toys or telephones. If you touch your eyes, nose or mouth after such contact or exposure, you're likely to catch a cold."  So basically, unless you live in a bubble, you will catch a cold at some point in your life.  With the CCC from MOBU Herbals, some prevention is available by rubbing the CCC on your hands as a barrier from the germs. 

Some tips for relief are:

Turn up the heat: the warmer a room, the clearer the nose!  The reason for this is that the mucous is loosened due to the warmer temperature.  It also feels nice to be a little warmer when you feel sick!  Eating some warm chicken noodle soup will also help clear up the mucous.

Stay hydrated: the more moisture you have, the thinner the mucous!  Thinner mucous means it will be expelled from your body easier.  Also, making mucous takes up quite a bit of moisture and that moisture needs to be replenished!  So, you can hydrate yourself and get feeling a little better.  Some good choices to drink to keep hydrated are water, juice, clear broth or warm lemon water.

Soothe your throat: gargling some salt water help relieve a sore, scratchy throat.  Use 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt dissolved in an 8-ounce glass of warm water for some fast relief.  Do this as needed.

CCC from MOBU Herbals: Once you have a cold, relief seems nearly impossible.  CCC has three items in the line (Bath Salts, Balm, and Lotion).  Each will help relieve the symptoms of the Common Cold and are 100% natural.  

Rest, Relax, and stay away from people: Well, this is the best way to stop spreading the germs!  Since a Common Cold can be spread by coughing and sneezing, it seems best to keep contact from other humans people as minimal as possible.  If they have a Cold, it could also elongate your cold and make you even that much more miserable.
