[QUOTE="runawaybunny, post: 247564"] tiredmommy, Does your family take probiotics or eat foods with active cultures? There have been some pretty good studies that show that they help decrease the severity and duration of colds. I'm not 100% positive but it seems logical that you could probably get the same result from eating yogurt with active cultures or kefir. From Pub medication: [URL="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16035374"]Effect of a dietary supplement containing probiotic bacteria plus vitamins and minerals on common cold infections and cellular immune parameters[/URL] CONCLUSION: These data indicate that the intake of a dietary supplement containing probiotic bacteria plus vitamins and minerals during a period of at least three months in winter/spring may reduce the incidence and the severity of symptoms in common cold infections in otherwise healthy adults. This may be due to stimulated cellular immunity. [/QUOTE]
