It's the season of colds and sniffles. And being ill this week, I listened to a full two hour Huberman podcast to learn some tips to avoid colds and flus π€
To save you time, here are the main takeaways ...
π Nose breathing is preventive
π Vit C supplements are not that effective
π A supplement called NAC had the highest recommendation for prevention, with medical staff taking regularly, or initially when ill to shorten symptoms
π Zinc also got a mention for prevention
π You are contagious when you have symptoms (that two day window is BS). Stay home.
πͺ When ill you should rest, light exercise is when mildly ill
π§ββοΈGood health & sleep will boost immune systems
ποΈ We mainly catch colds by unknowingly touching our eyes
Stay healthy folks!
