If you’d like to prevent a cold – take a hot/cold shower.
There’s a new way to shower – and it helps protect you against colds and flu! It’s a hot-cold shower that is duel action. The temperature fluctuations jump-start the immune system and stimulate circulation. To take a hot-cold shower effectively, start off by showering normally. At the end of your shower – stand under the hottest stream you can for about 30 seconds. Then, turn the shower cold for about 10 seconds. Repeat the hot-cold intervals three times – finishing with the cold.
Letting the shower get really steamy also helps keep nasal passages clear, so it’s a good idea to start your shower on the hot side to let some steam build up.
