Subject: RE: BS: Health: how to make myself robust?
I was told by a doctor that we don't drink enough water. I asked wqhat enough was. he said 6 ;pints a day. I rarely hit that height, but I've regularly sipped losts since.

Now in early 60s, and haven' had flu in years and no colds for many years after I upped water intake.

There is a book entitled "Your Body's mant Cries For Water" - that is ALL the book is about, our need for water.

I agree, too , about dairy. I'd add plenty of organic fruit and veg and chocolate, and steering clear of processed foods, which are mostly dead. A double-headed approach to maintaining a strong immune ststem.

Food manufacturer's do noy have any interest in keeping you healthy. They put in stuff like sugar which can be addictive, to kep you, therefore, buying your next hits.

And stay out of bed when illl unless you have anti-allefgic, specially-clean bedding. Full of dust mites and bed bugs that keep illness going. Or clean the bedding regularly. I loooooove bed too.

And insist to yourself you have no intention of being ill might help.
