Holiday Cold Fighter

It is said that people who stroke a pet for 15 minutes get a surge of germ-fighting proteins.  I think it is worth a try and I am sure your pets would not argue with this one.  Also, laughing at your favorite holiday comedy amps production of antibodies, while lowering levels of cortisol, the stress hormone that weakens your defenses!  Add in a pot of tea, which responds to viruses five times faster than coffee, and hopefully you will have a cold free holiday season.  OHHH and for extra caution, I would suggest washing your hands,  don’t share a fork with a sick person and if nothing else do not let anyone sneeze on you!!!  Happy Holidays my friends, be well, be happy and most importantly be safe.  Julie
