Things you need to know about why we get sick:
You're doing too much:

The stress of doing too much puts a burden on your whole body. Your immune system is one of the first to feel that load. It's not so much that your immune system is weak, it's just overworked and under-supported. Sound familiar?
You are not getting enough vitamin D:

Winter is not the season of sunlight so you will not make enough vitamin D.
Vitamin D is an essential part of a healthy, functioning immune system. Supplement 5000IU of D3 with K2 per day.
You are not staying warm enough:

The cold doesn't make you sick per se. The warmth of your body heat will increase production of interferon (an important innate immune system booster that helps fight infections). So stay warm, do saunas, hot baths.
(This is actually what your body does via fever. Research now reveals that you should allow the fever to ride out in order to enhance the production of interferon and help you body fight the infection). Unless of course, you are worried about seizures.
