Staying Healthy…
Just observed that neither Bri or I have had either a cold or flu for the past year. To what can we attribute this extended period of firmity? Hard to put my finger on one thing, our lives have changed a great deal in this time. Here are some possibilities:
- Relationship: ours and our children, doing very well;
- Exercise: almost daily and strenuous;
- Avoidance: working from home many days, not in an office environment (our children, who are in school, have gotten the usual colds — though we’ve managed somehow to not get what they’ve gotten);
- Diet: eating well, lots of vegetables, low carbs (though not obsessive; we’ve had our share of sweets, and we both drink our share of diet soda, though less than in previous years);
- Vitamins: we both take multivitamins and fish oils daily, about 1000-1500mg C, and a few thousand units of D during the winter.
Hard to say if any of these in isolation made the difference, but can’t argue with the combined results!
