Advantages: wards off colds

Disadvantages: taste

Echinacea - perfect for warding off an approaching cold. I swear by this vitamin supplement. It is a preventive approach, don't bother with it if you already have a cold or the flu.

It works like vitamin c in that it boosts your immune system. The two things to remember with echinacea is to take it with plenty of water, and do not take it all the time. In fact I wouldn't recommend taking it for more that a week, then take a break from it.

The down side with these suppliments is that they can taste vile, or come in pretty large capsules.

It might not stop you getting a cold, but it will stop you getting such a bad one.
