Vitamin D: Vitamin d is the only thing in studies shown to prevent colds. You don't sat where you live, but most people from north of atlanta are deficient and require active supplementation !

Lead healthy lifesty: Ibs - irritable bowel syndrome? Bv - ? Anyway, i'll presume you have a sensitive GI system, and poor immunity defenses against viruses 'colds'. Leading a healthy lifestyle--adequate hydration, some regular physical activity-such as a daily 2 mile walk, adequate, restful sleep--are key. Vitamin c, 500 mg twice daily and a good multivitamin may also be helpful.
