I used to be one of these people who constantly got colds and was sick. Of course, I weighted 272 pounds and was a complete couch potato! My idea of a great weekend was sleeping until 11 or noon (honestly), eating a HUGE b-fast (usually some ridiculous omelet with lots of cheese), watching tv, playing video games, eating something else ridiculous, move TV and video games, a ridiculous supper (usually a huge pizza, chinese, chips, beer, etc) and MORE TV/video games, stay up till...whenever (while eating snacks and beer)...to repeat on Sunday!!!
I really don't take any supplements (other than glucosamine/condrotin and fish oil for my arthritis) but, since embarking on healthy living and a commitment to exercise (and a significant weight loss)...I VERY rarely get sick! Even when those in my family or at work are struggling with being sick (again)...I don't get it. If, in the unusual instance that I do get sick, I'm usually over it quite quickly and don't get it that bad.
Hmmm...think there might be a link somewhere ? :)
