Common Cold: “All those times mom warned about possibly catching a cold by stepping out in cooler weather may actually be founded in truth according to Yale researchers”
Tips to Staving off the Common Cold
One habit that I have gotten used to is the act of washing my hands frequently and thoroughly. Especially when ever I used someone’s cell phone, a public lavatory or after personal contact with others in a social setting. Especially after spending some play time with the grand kids. Germs are every where and to avoid a cold we must be vigilant and keep the germs at bay.
Wash your hands!
Public washrooms are often a necessity and ripe with all the germs humanity has to share. Never exit a public washroom without using a paper towel in your hand so you can grab the handle and exit knowing that you have protected yourself in a most efficient manner. After all washing your hands then touching the door handle? Don’t be a knob! (I couldn’t resist.)

(NaturalNews) All those times mom warned about possibly catching a cold by stepping out in cooler weather may actually be founded in truth.
According to Yale University researchers, the common cold virus can reproduce itself more efficiently in the cooler temperatures that exist in the nose more than it can at a core body temperature. While this is commonly known in the scientific community, this particular study delves into an area that others have not focused on: analysis of how temperature impacts the immune system, rather than the role that body temperature plays when it comes to just the common cold virus.
