Fon Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 At the first sign of a cough, sneeze, or runny nose take echinacea Its the root of the plant that's the good bit, ( dont be fobbed off with cheap shit in the chemist that sell you the leafs etc) This will stop a cold in its tracks, (it wont if you take it too late, bosh this stuff at the fist sign) Costs me money to have a cold (cant fly, and only paid if I do fly.) So iv done a lot of research.. Iv been using it nearly 10 years! And In that time, iv probably had 5 full blown colds where I didn't take it early enough. (Warning, gives you weird dreams) Fon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jester Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I use First Defense and seems to work but the thing is , can you be sure it has worked ?? Would it have developed if you hadnt taken it? Hard to know lol. I think i will stick with my First Defense , buy some of Fon's echinacea and use both at the next sign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldringers Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Ive took echinacea for donkies years. The secret is, take it for 4-5 weeks then break off for a coyple of weeks but the main thing you must do , combine it with vit C that's when its at its most effective. I take a "slow release vit C" + echinacea first thing in the morn then last thing at night. I use be plaged with colds years ago but after taking the pair I rarely get a cold. I take omega 3 as well. I get the vit C and omega and a multi vit from Tesco. They do 2 for the price of 3 but I get the echinacea from a guy on ebay . Far cheaper 360 tablets for about a tenner. I eat plenty fresh fruit and all these combined ward off most colds.
