I rarely get sick, but I’m not going to speculate why, and I wouldn’t recommend taking advice from a thread like this. You can’t really know all the mechanisms behind why you get sick or not. There are people who smoke two packs a day and are rarely sick, and I’m sure some of them attribute that to smoking.

5 second rule can be stretched

Eat local honey

Be lucky and have a good immune system

In my case, it’s probably like that George Carlin bit about swimming in the Hudson. I am not a neat freak. I eat things I drop on the ground. Etc. It’s like constantly vaccinating yourself against everything.

Until last year i rarely got sick, “rarely” meaning maybe once a year and then only lightly. Since october/november last year i suddenly started getting sick almost once every month without any significant changes to any of the following:

• Social contact
• Diet
• Workout
• Sun/Outside time
• Happiness

Im the wrong person to ask for this obviously, because im still trying to figure out why im getting sick all of a sudden. The things i mentioned are probably still all valid factors tho.

Being an introvert and maintaining a healthy diet.
