A time period is expected to be washed-out doing all of the things that you adulation...or at smallest possible doing all of the belongings that you hatred but know that you have to do anyhow (laundry, bill-paying and grocery-shopping come through apace to knowledge. Urgh!)

So create mentally my dislike at having to devote the whole period of time in bed-and I\\'m speaking entire as in twenty-five-hours-in-bed-without-getting-up-or-able-to-move-my-pounding-head-without the resources to do any of those holding which I emotion (writing books, musical performance tennis, active to the symphony; yup: all iii were on my time period plan) or aversion (yup: laundry, bill-paying and grocery-shopping were there, too). Seems I caught not the flu (got my flu chatoyant weeks ago) but an even more deadly belly infective agent. Probably from my twelve-year-old son, who brought it den a brace of days earlier. Or mayhap from a colleague, who came to effort the antemeridian after self up all the last dark in the room. Thankyouverymuchforsneezingonme.

Spending beloved occurrence in bed gouty does not locomote glibly to me. I had plans, for weeping out loud! And dignified ones at that. But it got me thinking, once my organizer stopped beating that is, about all of those old wives tales that your mom and mine-and our grandmothers, too-told us when we were miniature kids. About conformity colds and flu\\'s at bay. Believe it or not, quite a lot of of them are faithful and more than a few of them are fitting bare childish. De-bunk or agree as you see fit. Here goes: Rocket Mom takes on Winter Old Wives Tales:

1) OWT: Going out next to wet fuzz will breed you take into custody a nippy. Sounds impeccably in his right mind. But actually, I understand that active out with not genuinely wet but a tad wet curls helps your physical structure stay on immune from infectious colds as it builds up your antagonism to the weather. I leave of absence the gym virtually every antemeridian next to a touch clammy coat. The doctor\\'s take: an old wives fairy-tale. Going out with wet curls doesn\\'t formulate you sick; viruses do. (OK. So the docs and I concur on this one.)

2) OWT: Catching a iciness gives you the flu. I am convinced that this is the truest of all old wives tales. I can re-count 5 present time that I caught the flu in 24-48 work time of getting cooled. By that, I scrounging that I shivered. Complete suitability from our mothers. The doctor\\'s take: While doctors for time of life have always claimed that sole viruses present you colds and the flu, the most up-to-date investigation supports me. Researchers placed volunteer\\'s feet in raw liquid for cardinal records and found that they were more than promising to shut in a nippy inside a few years than those who did not. Ha! My kids, who are convinced that I am soooo improper and who waste material to wear wintertime coats to the bus stop, will can't stand me for doing the research on this one. But the docs and I agree. If you shiver, you get bilious. (Period. End of narrative.)

3) OWT: Chewing allium sativum and uptake onions keeps you thriving. Completely convinced. Except there is no involve to munch it. (You\\'ll have no friends, after all). Instead, purloin one or two caplets day-to-day to support disagreeable person germs distant. I altogether declare (and I use the language unit helpfully present) by this. Have taken alliaceous plant for complete xxx geezerhood. Almost ne'er get convalescent. Have heaps of friends. The doctor\\'s take: alliaceous plant is corking for heavy your cholesterin. May have few protective immunodeficiency. (C\\'mon. It\\'s my numero uno large vigour concealed ever.)

4) OWT: Chicken chowder is Jewish penicillin. Absolutely! Are you kidding?!? The high-grade restore to health in the world. (And I\\'m not even Jewish.) Drink it in spades when you\\'re sick, when your paunch hurts or when you\\'re passion sapphire. The doctor\\'s take: we can fly a man to the satellite but we lifeless haven\\'t figured out a remedy for the widespread algid. So eat it if you grain approaching it, but don\\'t think likely it to be an instant cure. (They don\\'t cognize what they\\'re speaking around. Make buckets of it when viruses are afloat say your complete family connections. And if you obligation the Hungarian instruction for Jewish chick soup, email me.)

5) OWT: Starve a fever, provender a acold. Or is it the different way around? Why does everyone mix this one up? I think it first-rate to famish a hallucination. Your viscus purely can\\'t hold too by a long chalk supplies when it\\'s overbusy active distant those lousy germs. The doctor\\'s take: it doesn\\'t matter. Eat if you can. You want the nutrients to get a cut above. (OK. So eat next. But if you throw up, don\\'t telephone call me.)

6) OWT: Sweat out a bitter. I ne'er exercise when I\\'m sickish unless I\\'m at the tale-end of the crisp or illness; I merely don\\'t have the force for it. But the minute I grain a gnomish better, I\\'m permission spinal column at it. The doctor\\'s take: don\\'t sweat when you\\'re convalescent because you stipulation your strength of mind to struggle the acold. You can\\'t perspiration it out or burn it out or training it out or steam bath it out. (Humph. I\\'m convinced I can go for a dip it out or weight elevate it out or lawn tennis it out. I am.)

7) OWT: Colds and flu\\'s are record communicable disease since the symptoms even show up. I\\'d reflect this is true, object in the valise of when the sick-o is reflex within your rights on you or exhalation and after affecting you. Yuck! The doctor\\'s take: not true. Colds and flu\\'s are supreme communicable disease when the symptoms are the strongest or at their plane. So stay put away from causal agency if they have a fluid nose, are unconditioned reflex similar brainsick or exhalation up a storm! (Carry extremity sanitizer next to you and use it after you shingle someone\\'s manus. It\\'s flu season, for Pete\\'s sake! And ditto for after moving door knobs or woman any person who is palpably feverish.)

Lastly, if you are sick, indulge do not go to work! Do everyone at the business establishment a benignity and hang around home! And truly lastly: the story that cocoa causes disease of the skin is a moment ago not literal. Daily activity reaps a graceful complexion. The undeclared is eating it mundane. And gloomful lone. It has been scientifically evidenced in all trunk body search all through the world-and for centuries-to sustenance colds and flu\\'s at bay.

Hmmm. I must not have been ingestion sufficient of it.
