Well
I've been hesitant to write this posting for fear of jinxing myself. But, ever since I've moved here, I've been WELL. Usually by this time in the academic year I am fighting off my second or third cold. But (knock on wood) I haven't gotten sick this year. This fortune of good health is attributed to a few factors. First, and obviously, I'm not exposed to hundreds of students and their germs on a daily basis. Second, I am not as stressed out as I was when I taught. Third, for the most part, I'm cooking and eating better. Fourth, I'm taking daily fish oil and multivitamins. Fifth, I'm exercising more than I used to. It feels good to be WELL.

You're partly right, "...I'm not exposed to hundreds of students..." I have heard that there are a hundred or so cold viruses. Once you get them all you are immune. In my case after years of teaching and suffering the sniffles year after year, after a while colds came less often till I hardly ever had one.
