What do you do when you get a cold? More so, what do you do to avoid getting a cold? I have heard about so many home remedies for and preventive actions against the common cold. Yet the common cold just seems to be just that – all too common.
The usual way by which a lot of people try to fend off colds is to ingest large quantities of vitamin C. Now I am not saying that this does not work – I actually am a huge believer in this method. Research also shows that regular intake of this vitamin helps maintain one’s immune system. No conclusive evidence has been found to show that vitamin C does boost one’s immune system, though. So maybe I am not doing it right…
Some research, however, has shown that exercise can actually help keep the cold away. According to The American Journal of Medicine, people who exercise caught fewer colds throughout the whole year. The amount of exercise involved in the study was about 45 minutes of brisk walking everyday (5 days a week). I also read some practical tips for exercise to fight colds in Big Beautiful You. Some exercises which are “easy” to do are walking and ice skating. I, myself, prefer my elliptical bike because of the convenience of not having to leave the house and get dressed properly for exercise. However, I am sure that there are other ways to get some exercise into your routine – it really all depends on your preferences and schedule.
你感冒的時(shí)候你會(huì)怎么辦？進(jìn)一步來說，你如何避免感冒？我聽說過很多對(duì)于一般感冒的家庭治療法和預(yù)防的措施。然而，一般感冒似乎只是那么普通的一件事情。
許多人預(yù)防感冒的最常見方法是攝入大量維他命C。眼下我并不是在說這不管用——事實(shí)上我覺得這個(gè)辦法很管用。科學(xué)實(shí)驗(yàn)也表明，定期地服用維他命有助于保護(hù)人的免疫系統(tǒng)。但是沒有確鑿的證據(jù)表明維他命C確實(shí)有助于人的免疫系統(tǒng)。所以也許我一直服用維他命C是錯(cuò)誤的。
然而有些研究結(jié)果表明，運(yùn)動(dòng)的確能夠助于預(yù)防感冒。根據(jù)《醫(yī)藥》這本美國雜志表明，在一整年中，運(yùn)動(dòng)的人更不容易得感冒。在研究中的運(yùn)動(dòng)包括，每天45分鐘的快步走（一周五天）。我也曾經(jīng)在BIG BEAUTIFUL YOU看過一些實(shí)用的用運(yùn)動(dòng)來對(duì)抗感冒的小辦法。有些運(yùn)動(dòng)比較容易做到，像是走路和滑冰。我自己更偏好于在我的健身器材上運(yùn)動(dòng)因?yàn)楹芊奖悴挥猛獬觯膊挥脼榱送獬鲞\(yùn)動(dòng)穿衣打扮。我確信在你的日常生活中還有其他可以用來鍛煉的方式——這真的都取決于你的偏好和計(jì)劃。
