How It Works

The All Natural Breathe Better Nasal Ointment acts like a natural decongestant for the nose by reducing inflammation and swelling. It promotes a healthy nasal environment – meaning it encourages good bacteria and discourages bad bacteria. By keeping the flora balanced within the nasal cavity, the bad bacteria which causes your inflammation and swelling is minimized.

Top 10 Cold Remedies & Giveaway

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

YES...this winter is LONGGGGGGGGGGGG!!! Which also means that cold/flu season is also really LONGGGGG! ICK!!!

If you are trying to get through this icky season, check out these great cold remedies below from Scotties and Mount Auburn Hospital! Then enter the giveaway to win a great prize pack of Scotties Tissue and a $25 gift card!

The common cold is accurately named because it is indeed the most frequent infection we encounter. Thankfully Mount Auburn Hospital, a top Harvard teaching hospital and Scotties Facial Tissues are here to bring you their top 10 list of cold remedies to help alleviate your symptoms next time you feel yourself getting sick.

 Cause: 

The common cold as explained by Stephen H. Zinner, M.D., Director of Medicine for Mount Auburn Hospital in Cambridge, MA is caused by a number of different viruses, and as such is not treatable with antibiotics (which treat infections caused by bacteria). There is no definitive or specific treatment or cure for the common cold, which is an example of a “self-limited” infection, meaning that patients recover when the infection has run its natural course.

 Treatments:

Although many treatments are available, all provide relief of symptoms but they do not speed the eradication of the infecting virus. According to Zinner, Symptom relief can be obtained by these TOP 5 measures including:

1. Humidification – add a humidifier to your home or steam a pot of water in the kitchen.
2. Steam vapor – take a hot shower and breath in the steam
3. oral decongestants,
4. nasal saline irrigation and select nasal sprays,
5. Aspirin or acetaminophen may be useful for the body aches that may accompany the first 24 -48 hours of a cold.

 Scotties adds their own TOP 5 measures including:

1. Sleep – make sure to give your body the rest it requires to naturally rid the body of a cold.
2. Exercise can be useful to thin out mucus and increase the activity of white blood cells - if the person feels well enough to workout.
3. Warm soup or hot tea can soothe a sore throat.
4. Vitamin C & Zinc – stock up on foods high in these immune boosting properties
5. A soft tissue like that from Scotties can help alleviate nasal blockage and congestion.

Dr. Zinner says that the usual duration of illness ranges from 5 to 10 or more days, but most people begin to feel better within 24 or 48 hours after the onset of sore throat, runny nose and sniffles. The viruses that cause colds can be spread on the hands of infected persons to other individuals, so frequent hand washing is very useful to prevent transmitting the infection to others or catching a cold from an individual sufferer.
