CS,
Have you tried Zicam? Lots of evidence that it prevents, shortens, and alleviates colds. My sister, a nurse practitioner, recommends it.
I usually get about one sore throat a year and bought some grapefruit seed extract spray for the occasion. Grapefruit seed extract is a powerful germicide used by doctors and hospitals.
I have used Proseed brand drops (very strong) and capsules. The drops must be diluted and can be used for everything from cleaning, disinfecting, to mouth rinsing. (spray might be easier for mild jobs like mouthwash, sore throats and diaper rash) The caps are generally used for yeast infections and germs resistant to drugs. I find that they clear my head. No real side effects and I've taken massive doses.
I've often thought grapefruit seed extract has anti-depressant qualities. It gives my head a kind of cool lucid feeling. A holistic doctor *prescribed* it for me years ago when it was suspected that I had systemic candida. The first time I took it I got high on lucidity.
