Been sick for a week. The best thing to help me was Movie Theater Butter Pop Corn with extra butter melted and poured over it, then generously covered with Garlic Salt, and Cayenne Pepper. Chased with CocaCola because all that garlic salt and cayenne made it hot! Followed with Garlic toast made with French Bread, way too much butter, generous garlic powder, cayenne pepper, slice of mozzarella cheese and some pepperoni slices. The cheese and pepperoni are only so you can stand the huge amounts of garlic powder and cayenne pepper.

If your throat gets sore and you lose your voice...Heat a can of chicken broth with some garlic powder and cayenne pepper. Sip on it. After about 10 minutes you will get your voice back.

Seriously, I tried the over the counter stuff and my SIL meant well fixing me chicken soup and some home made garlic bread (without much garlic powder and no cayenne) with her home made whole wheat bread. Was having to double dose the meds to just maintain and the soup and toast didn't helped much. Finally ended up trudging to the store myself and got my go to stuff and was better within an hour of getting home and making pop corn! There is also something about using french bread for making the garlic cayenne toast. Have tried other types of bread and it just didn't help as much.
