Being sick sucks. However, some of us can handle ourselves feeling under the weather many times better than others. I happen to be a person who doesn't get too bent out of shape with the common cold. I'm lucky I guess. I also don't catch illness to often, I leave that to weaker members of my family...
Do I have a secret to wellness?! Well, I don't really think so. Part of my illness-combat technique involves my high metabolism which some simply don't have. The other essentials that I resort to are making sure I get plenty of Vit. C and, best for last, chewing garlic. That is right. Raw garlic. The key is to eat before you chew. That way the garlic doesn't burn a hole through your stomach. And when I say 'chew' I mean chew to a pulp, until your ears burn and your chin is wet with tears. I know some who cut the garhlic up and swallow it or take garlic pills... this simply doesn't work as well. The point is to reduce the clove to its telos (which is to kick ass) and spread that poison juice all over the area affected (my throat and nasal cavity currently). Yes, you will stink... that is fact. But stinking is better than being ill. [Ed. Note: the reverse would be true for playing music]
