Can a bowl of chicken soup help fight a cold? Maybe. But will going outside with wet hair make you sick? No. Here are some more.
Feed a cold, starve a fever. Being sick often makes you eat less. But force-feeding won't help. What will help is drinking more water and getting enough calories. A 2008 study found that mice having flu took longer to recover and were more likely to suffer ill effects if they were dieting.
Vicks VapoRub(薄荷膏) in your socks treats coughs. A widely spread post on line once suggested putting Vicks VapoRub on feet at night and covering them with socks to treat coughs. VapoRub is usually used on a child's chest or throat to reduce cough. So it would not work in your socks. Still, some fans stand by this treatment.
Colds and flu are caused by viruses. They do spread during cold-weather seasons, but you're more likely to pick them up inside than out. In fact, going outside and getting more physical activities-and not just during cold and flu season-may help prevent sickness.
A wet head can make you sick. You'll probably feel cold if you don't blow your hair dry on a cold day, but not much else will happen. Unless you are so cold that you get a low temperature, which could make you sensitive to flu, wet hair or clothes won't increase your possibility of catching a cold.
A. It became an internet popularity.
B. You'll get sick if going out without a coat.
C. Again, colds are caused by a virus.
D. That's just an incorrect traditional belief in cold.
E. But you have to actually wear it for the health benefits.
F. Experts suggest adding medicines three times a day to your meal.
G. The researchers' suggestion is to stop dieting until after flu season.
