      I'm convinced that vitamin C does absolutely nothing to ward off a cold or flu, and I'm also convinced that I will beat the shit out of my neighbors with one of my shoes if they keep me awake one more night, the way they did last night.

      It does fend off scurvy.

      You gotta guzzle the stuff before you get ill. Once you're already sick it doesn't really work…

      Which also defeats the point of eating/drinking/taking more in the first place.

      Exactly. I eat an over abundance of oranges and grapefruit…like everyday for the last 3 months, and in the last two months I've been super sick twice. 🙁

      You would actually need to eat 30 oranges a day to get enough Vitamin C. True Story.

      Vitamin C does help with colds. I promise.

      Well, I guess I've been proven wrong. I just thought for the amount of fruit I eat a day, I'd have a head start on fighting off colds and stuff.

      I actually overheard someone talking about how taking vitamin C pills is like taking birth control. You miss one day, it's all over and ya gotta restart.

      Zinc. Take Zinc to prevent colds.

      Also of note: The cold virus prospers in warm environments – which is why people get them more in winter: They go out into the cold wearing down the body's resistance, then back inside into the warmth (which is normally warmer than usual during wintertime), creating a happy cold virus. 🙂

      I take no vitamins, drink like a fish, and stay up all hours. Never get sick. I think it's about genetics more than anything! Either that or the alcohol kills all the germs! !lol

      P.S. Sorry you've been so sick Amy!

      **note to self** start drinking like a fish 😀

      I'm better now, thanks…and I gave my neighbors a peice of my mind at 3am this morning, so it's all good now. 🙂 Have fun watching the boys. I've been on Craigslist trying to eye some good tickets for April and May but there aren't very many good deals.
