You can't get over a cold quickly. None of the above will be of any benefit at all. You can't boost the immune the system, it simply doesn't work that way. Overuse of antioxidants like vit C may have have a negative effect. A part of the way you body fights infection is by the generation of oxidative free radicals. If you give a molecule (antioxidant) that takes up free radicals, your going to blunt the effect of the immune system on the infection. So you may make matters worse.
The best you can do reduce the symptoms by use of over the counter medication, antihistamines, paracetamol etc.
If you take nothing for a cold it will go away in 1-2 weeks. If you do take something, it will go away in 7-14 days.
Sorry to be a downer but that is the hard truth. Best of luck.
EDIT: sarah, you can't "cleanse" your immune system - it is way to complex for such a concept.Health Question & Answer
