I haven't found that many good cold medicines that relieved every symptom that I was having. The Advil series sux btw (excpet for Flu and Body Ache). Any suggestions?
"The Kiss of Death Mistake"
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
What do you guys think is the best cold medicine out there?

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Antibiotics. But those aren't over the counter

Nyquil is good for at night before you go to sleep because it will knock you out. There is a daytime version called Dayquil that works really good at relieving symptoms but it only lasts for 4 or 5 hours for each dose. There are products that give up to 12 hours for relief, you might want to try one of those. Antibiotics on the other hand, will only work for bacterial infections not if your cold is caused by a virus(most colds are).
I saw something new called Zicam which is supposed to reduce the severity and duration of a cold. I haven't tried it yet but I heard it works!
Good luck!

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
But zinc does work for a cold. If you feel like your getting a cold buy some of these tablets called "Cold Eeze" they have some zinc glucose mixture and it will get rid of the cold the same day it starts.
Seriously, its saved me like 3 times in the last year an a half.

You're not taking enough. Drink the whole bottle.

Sudafed always seems to do the job for me.
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

You are correct, however that source sucks to prove so
I looked into it some more on my own.

Heh the website wasnt meant to be a source about the antibiotics, rather it tells you effective treatments for colds.Originally posted by Shiftkey

Zicam is overpriced but works great for me. I had the beginning of a sore throat on thurs night. Bought it and sprayed it into my mouth like mad (every 1.5 hours instead of the 3 that is says to), Fri I still had symptoms till about 3pm when most of them went away. Im fine now. So it shortened the cold alot. This is the second time that it helped me so it must work because my colds usually take about a week or two to run themselvs out

I would not recommend taking over 100mg of zinc a day.
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

fitnessguy, what are the side affects of taking too much zinc? I didnt have anywhere near 100mg but I was taking 2x the dosage for a day.

Abdominal cramping, diarrhea, vomiting, increased risk for prostate cancer, and anemia. Also the more zinc you have, the less copper you have, and the less good cholesterol.
If in general you eat a high protein diet you probably have a good amount of zinc in your system so don't have to worry about being in a deficiency. If you take a multi-vitamin you are probably getting plenty of zinc with that and your diet. If you are not, supplementing with say a 50mg pill of zinc is fine I would think.
