Depressed Immunity: Frequent colds are no fun! Many people are low in Vitamin D and this results in frequent Colds. High sugar intake and not enough sleep are other things that make colds more likely. You can decrease your odds of getting sick by taking Vit D, avoiding high-sugar foods, getting enough sleep and taking immune boosters like selenium, Olive leaf, zinc, and echinacea. Best Wishes!
