    One of the things this diet has done for me is I hardly know when I have a cold, last thing I caught the only symptom I noticed was a light fever

      Yeah. I think it’s a consequence of being in good health / low inflammation.

      I catch colds and flu sometimes mostly from others in our public pool. I get a runny nose at night and some sore throat for 1-2 days. That’s it. It goes away on its own.

      I am shocked at how bad they affect my neighbors. They get bedridden for a week minimum—body ache, fever, cold, and cough etc even on medications.

      One of them died of covid while I remained asymptomatic. This was before the vaccine. (Could have been a stroke of luck. I shouldn’t feel proud of it)
