Agreed, at least as to the alcohol part. I've found the following recipe works like magic:
Toddy Americano
Boil a kettle of water.
Steep echinacea tea 10 minutes.
Add 1 shot bourbon whiskey.
Squeeze juice of 1/4 lemon into tea.
Stir in 1 generous tablespoon of honey.
Drink.
Repeat as necessary.
For the flu, also take indica-heavy cannabis tincture as necessary to fight off nausea. For a cold, take indica-heavy cannabis tincture as necessary for relaxation.
I don't know if this method actually speeds healing or not, but it certainly makes the illness much more bearable; and cannabis has indeed been shown to have some pretty spectacular anti-nauseant properties, which is why they prescribe it to chemo patients.

I fight the flu and all other viruses by consuming alcohol and tobacco.
