Gingseng Soup is a a favorite remedy in my family. I have also seen similar potions such as on this page. On actually drinking them, I think my wife has given up on me. I just don't have the stomach for them :-)

I did not realize there were differences:
Chinese herbs are often very effective remedies against the common cold, but they can usually only be found in Chinatown. It is essential to take the appropriate remedy for your symptoms because there are important differences between the various types and in Traditional Chinese Medicine all colds are not created equal.
