In almost 3 years I have not had a cold. I attribute much of this to eating paleo. However, upon my return from India I have been the lucky winner to have caught a cold (most likely from spending 21 hours on a plane with absolute strangers breathing in the recirculated air. I’m not the only one though. It’s cold season and I know there are several people at the gym fighting colds as I write this. Here is a blog post from Sarah Fragoso’s website everydaypaleo.com on how to remedy these bugs naturally with regular household items. Thanks Sarah for the suggestions! Also, make sure you’re eating well, drinking a lot water, and washing your hands regularly.
