It could be a psychological thing. Whenever I catch myself starting to feel sick I just convince myself that I won't get sick and it works 3/4 times.

LEGIT. I've had nights where my throat is dry and I have sniffles. I just convince myself it's not real and that I'm perfectly healthy and later that day I'm much better.

Even when my family gets really sick and I do this it works somehow. Placebo is a powerful thing man.

Same for meds. If you think you're coming down with something, take an over the counter painkiller. Tell yourself it's super strong and will fix it all.

The placebo effect is vastly underrated.

There's a reason why it's used as a control element in medical studies. The power of placebo against actual medication to compare efficacy.

i dont understand why this keeps happening. im a pretty heathy guy all things considered. i get my vitamin C from drinking orange juice and eating clementine. i get my vitamin D from eating banana, drinking milk and eating pills. i eat my veggis and red meat almost everyday. no smokes, rarely drinks ands no drugs. i work out 3-4 times a week and do my cardio and STILL i keep getting a runny nose every now and than.

How are your barriers?
  • Drinking enough water?
  • Wearing lotion?
  • Not having unprotected sex?
  • Keeping your nose hairs a normal length?
  • Sleeping in an environment that's not too dry?
How's your diet?
  • Eating fermented and probiotic things?
  • Garlic?
