I had been drinking about a quart of green tea per day except for a couple of days leading up to the contraction of the virus.<br /><br />I did gargle with salt water once and did Neti Pot (which is awesome for colds as well as allergies) but did not do so on a continued basis. Your reminders will help me keep it up to get rid of this asap!
