I am just fine. In fact, I have been just fine since 2021, which was the last time I had so much as a head cold. I have no way of knowing if what I'm about to share is true or some other outside factor is the reason, but let me tell you what I changed in my life in 2021.
I decided to start eating healthy. I don't mean guv'ment chart healthy or fad diet healthy, but I stopped eating any and all food that had ingredients that I haven't seen or touched in real life. I went a step further and stopped eating food that was fed food that was unhealthy.
I've heard "organic" and "pasture fed" and "grass fed" and "air chilled" and the rest were all a bunch of bullshit fake terms. I have no way of knowing whether this is true or not, but I made it a point since 2021 to only eat meat that contained these types of words. I check every single food or drink that I consoom for any ingredient that I am not familiar with. I don't cheat and lie to myself about something being "alright" or "acceptable", if a product (ANY PRODUCT) has some bullshit ingredient in it, even one, I won't consoom it.
Here is basically what I eat every single day: Breakfast, 4 organic pasture raised eggs with organic red and yellow bell peppers, organic White mushrooms and jalapeno sauce with olive oil. For lunch I eat either, grass fed meat, grass fed air chilled chicken, fish caught in the Pacific ocean, or pizza with sauce (three ingredients) cheese that I shred and toppings like bell peppers, White mushrooms and olives. Sometimes I might have some chicken on the pizza. For dinner, I'll typically just have a piece of fruit. I also take some fiber everyday.
Been on this diet since 2021 and haven't had so much as the sniffles since 2021. I'm not some young kid either. I used to be known as the guy that was always sick. I remember once I had a cough that lasted 6 months. I have no idea if my diet has anything to do with it or it's just a weird coincidence. There have been a few incidents over the years during holidays or other events where I've eaten or drank things that aren't part of my daily diet and I almost always feel like shit for a few days afterwards.
If anyone else here is willing to test this theory, I hear it's a bad jew flu season this year, I'd be curious if you get the same results.
Organic might be a buzzword, but it still means a lot as an official designation on food. I can't prove the companies claiming "organic" are being 100% truthful, but it is a a meaningful label and you will notice the difference clearly.
Random example, in the US and Canada they spray glyphosate on grain crops as a dessicant, right before or during harvest. Any grain product labeled "organic" is SUPPOSED to be 100% glyphosate free at all parts of the growing process. Is it actually? I don't know. But the non-organic is always sprayed, so it's worth trying.
I'm not even recommending eating grains, but I do enjoy a bit of oats with my eggs for breakfast sometimes, and I'd rather not purposely eat industrial pesticides when possible.
