Think Zinc. Either way, be well. Sick sucks. Also made a strange
  discovery a few years back in experimenting. Raw garlic clove
  immediately followed by anything with vitamin C. [to kill the
  pain]. Tomato juice, orange juice, Vit C pill, doesn't matter.
  On thetongue. Found it via experimenting, worked on several
  people. But... working with public? Can't do. Next day? PHEW!
