How can I stop getting so many colds?!

[Yoyoyo1]

I've had 3 colds in the last 6 weeks!

Eat loads of fruit and vegetables. Take zinc if you feel you're getting the slightest sniffle. Stay away from crowds.

Vitamin D supplements

I work in a pharmacy and soooo many colleagues and customers are full of a dreadfull cold. Ive gone back to wearing my mask both in and out of work and hand gelling / washing constantly. So far ive escaped all viruses.

Spend more time outside

I already eat healthily and take a multivitamin but I'm currently floored by the worst cold I've ever had. (Covid test negative!) I think my immune system has weakened by being mostly isolated during lockdown, I'm still working at home and not out much - not coming into contact with many people and therefore not picking up and fighting off the little germs means the big one has hit harder. I feel dreadful at the moment. Get well soon @Yoyoyo1

Pine needle tea.

It's rather nice. Google it.

nutrition
vit d3
exercise (preferably outside in daylight)
good sleep

that's basically it. apart from vaccines, which are not (yet) developed for the hundreds of different cold viruses.

Wear a mask in public places

First Defen- you can get it boots and Superdrug - you snort it up your nose if you know there are bugs close by.... all my family have had really bad colds - my husband who never takes a day off work had 3 days in bed... my sun had a week from school.
I kept snorting first defense and I'm fine.. touch wood i stay that way!!

DS14 has been the same, he’s had 4 in 3 months.... usually he only gets one or 2 in a year..

Echinacea and Vit D and vit c, loads of it. I take elderberry syrup too.
