Master Lee was my son-in-law Nick’s first Tae Kwon Do instructor. After not catching any colds or bugs or whatever for fifteen years, he shared with his students what he did:
- Eat spicy food every day
- Wash your hands frequently, especially after shaking hands (and don’t shake hands if you don’t have to)
- Take daily hot and cold showers (one way to do this is to turn on the cold spray for 60 seconds two or three times during your nice hot shower)
There are more helpful ideas about staying well this fall and winter in Gene Stone’s book, Secrets of People Who Never Get Sick.
