Well, I have succumbed to the cold that about a third of my co-workers have, not to mention my husband. Damn, I hate being sick.
 
I have been pimping this product forever, but nobody seems to love it like I do. Anyway, if you can find a nasal spray called ‘Simply Saline’ (it comes in a Blue can or a White can, but the blue is for upper respiratory conditions) I highly recommend it!!! I swear you will feel better after just one application.
