Why is a cold called a Cold when you dont feel cold ?? |
Why is a cold called a Cold when you dont feel cold ?? Actually a cold is NOT brought on by temperature change in the weather. The common cold is a virus. Virus are transferred from one person to another through airborne bacteria, and saliva. However, going into the cold after having the cold can lower the immune system and make you susceptible to pneumonia. It is called a "cold" because one of the symptoms is chills. Source(s): http://www.commoncold.org/special1.htm... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/common_cold... it is brought on and worsened by the cold! perhaps they didnt know any othr name to give it maybe because we often catch cold when it is cold. ^_^ i would pressume its purely down to when its colder weather we get more colds. This is not due to temperature directly, contrary to common belief, it is due to the weather making more people stay inside, in confined spaces rather than being out in the fresh air, e.g.- if its snowing, u would stay inside a classroom if ur a kid etcetc. its this closeness and humid atmospheres in confined spaces in winter that cause more colds. Because its more likely to be around in the colder months. This is because people stay indoors more and germs breed. |

anything below zero is cold.... They have no affect whatsoever on the cold virus itself. Cold tablets are just designed to relieve symptoms while the virus lasts.... The viruses last longer because the bodies defenses are weakened in cold weather. The body needs to maintain 98.6 degrees in order to fight infection.... yes and no. it might lesses your symptoms but its a preventative in the least. just take some vit C and zinc and get plenty of rest. drink fluids and relax. this too shall pass...lol... There are several I have seen ads for but the only 2 I can recall the names of are Zycam and Cold MD.... I happen to think the vitamin D theory is the most logical explanation for the flu season being during winter. People are inside more during winter, they get less sunlight and vitamin D leve... Dude, leave the meth alone and get a life. Who do you think you are kidding? If I catch you trying to buy mass quantities in my neighborhood, a cold will be the least of your worries.... Maybe it is not a cold and you are allergic to something in the fruit. My advice is to just stay away from it.... |
