I read the article. It said nothing about preventing them. It did say that
parents gave the useless remedy after symptoms have been around for a while,
and that giving the remedy earlier *might* have helped, but this is not
prevention.

Buttom line is that there is no valid reason to think that this remedy helps
kids with colds.
