Agree with this.

Freshly squeezed lemon in warm water.

Try to reduce sugar intake as sugar suppresses the immune system.

Vitamin C 1000mg a day (when i was really poorly i took 3000mg a day and it really helped)

Veggie juice, and warming homemade soup, with garlic and onion added.

Don't forget plenty of room temperature water.
