Help me come up with a name for...
For me right now that would be the "I am wearing an oversized sweatshirt with ancient workout pants and big fuzzy socks with my hair pulled into the world's messiest ponytail, no make up and HUGE dark circles under my eyes that are only outdone but the redness of my nose" hot mess.
I feel there should be a name for that. Any suggestions?

I know that other people with higher B12, D show less of an issue with getting colds...
SUPLEMNET...
in a meantime - so sorry you are sick again... (HUGS)))

I also live with school aged children.
I don't think it's a vitamin issue. Schools = heinous germs. They get sick,cough all over me and then I get sick. You name a supplement that will overcome that and I'll gladly buy it!

And additional B12 shot (at onset) may also do the trick.

Good thing about our re-arranged guts though? Nighttime meds kick in IMMEDIATELY. Bad side: you can FEEL your digestive system all the way through. I get warm from my esophagus all the way throughout to my...well...you know...the place where it all comes out.

My aunt (a nurse) used to give me B12 shots when I was to get sick. If I got a fever, or got congested - she would come over and give me a shot. But when she could not - I usually would end up with full blown cold or sinus infection.
The "quick Defense" - gel caps - you may find in TJ or Whole foods. I am sure Whole foods carry that.
