I don't usually get sick so I don't know what id do when I get sick but I think that's because my parents didn't raise me in a sterile environment "bubble".

Surely it's got something to do with your current social/working environment, you could have a 'clean' upbringing that resulted in you being in a germ 'bubble' but if your out a lot socially or work in an environment with a lot of people I.e an office - sooner or later you will catch something of someone ....

Zinervawyrm just have more rest and eat healthy when youre sick (even if youre not sick) eating healthy can help the immune system of your body (idk thats what i heard) and while youre having a good rest a huge battle between your immune system and bacteria/virus is happening. If the immune system wins then they would pretty much kill theirselves (except for memory cells) so i dont think sweating is the cure here

Increase in temperature is body's way of boosting immune system temporarily. Increase in temperature enables the white blood cells (cells of the immune system) in your bloodstream to move more rapidly, therefore they can reach the site attacked by the virus in shorter time.

as a nursing student, all of this is entirely accurate! showering makes me feel the best when I'm sick, especially because nursing school is so hard it's not easy to miss one day. so a nice steamy shower makes me feel so nice. for a while I thought it was just me however, we learned in class that showers make everyone feel 10 times better when they're clean and fresh so bed baths and showers for mobile patients are extremely beneficial for the patients recovery.

Myth - colds are a winter thing... truth? the cold virus can only survive a fairly short time outside the warmth of the host, so in warmer weather it can survive longer and therefore stands a better chance of infecting a new host, so colds are just as prevalent in the summer, if not more common. Thoughts?

Draw a small circle anywhere on your body. The virus cells will get curious and check it out, and get trapped inside the ring. All you have to do then is to wait for the while blood cells to come eat them up. Make sure to wipe it off so the white blood cells are freed, otherwise they clump up and die, forming a cyste. (seriously, just drink lots of fluids and chill out, really isn't much else to do)

In 2006, a researcher from the Harvard School of Public Health found a strong link between dairy consumption and hormone-dependent cancers - testes, breast, and prostate.
I rarely ever get sick, maybe once a year or so, but whenever I do contract a virus I get very sick. To the point where my head is throbbing with a thought destroying migraine, and a sore throat bad enough to ruin my appetite. I usually just go about my business as I normally would though. Making sure to wash my hands and use hand sanitizer whenever possible. I also don't take any drugs to alleviate my symptoms. I always drink a lot of tea and coffee but I cut back on my coffee intake as much as possible whenever I get sick and try to drink more green tea and eat more foods that are rich in vitamins.

My mom keeps telling me that if I had a sore throat or any other throat related illness I can't eat anything cold or with milk (ice cream, yogurt, ice, etc) becuase if I do I would just make it worse.
*you’re at your most contagious around 2 to 4 days after your exposure and that is when you will be showing symptoms* Me: laughs in corona
Im at home sick rn. And i laughed so hard at this omg
I take a bath in the hottest water that I can tolerate. I also don't take drugs (tylenol, sudafed) during the day. My rationale is that the drugs merely alleviate symptoms, but don't do anything to fight the infection, but the symptoms are the result of my body fighting the infection. I will take drugs before bed if I'm having trouble falling asleep, though. Sleep is more important.
this is still probably one of my favorite asapscience/thought video
I'm actually sick right now. Anyway when i am sick, I drink A LOT of tea and in the early stages of the cold, or whatever I have, I go for a run. I have heard that you can "sweat out" the germs and you can feel better faster. I swear to this. It always works for me.

You guys are such dorks. That's a compliment, by the way :) I didn't know that the one about being most contagious before you show symptoms was false. I originally heard it from my mom, who is a nurse, so I assumed she knew what she was talking about. I usually rest and read/watch TV/play games and drink lots of water. If I'm throwing up, I'll drink pop so I can have some calories and electrolytes that probably won't set off my stomach, as well as eat whatever mild food I can keep down. I also limit myself to one blanket to avoid driving my fever up. With colds, I usually just go about my business as much as possible. I only take medicine if I'm miserable or my fever gets high (101 or higher), or before bed so I can sleep, so that I can just fight it off and be done with it.
i’m sick more often than not and what i do to combat that is •eat foods with chicken broth. i’m vegetarian but chicken broth has really heathy fats and vitamins that you need when you’re sick •drink ginger ale. ginger has muscle relaxing and stomach soothing qualities. ginger ale is mostly water and sugar which are both good when you’re sick (to hydrate and add calories) •eat vanilla ice cream. the brand i buy is just cream, milk, sugar, and vanilla so there’s nothing in it thats bad for you. •the rest of what i eat/drink when i’m sick is fruit, water, and protein shakes. i really can’t stomach much else but this is basically the stuff i find helps me feel better the quickest
2:10 me with food
Subtle plug at the beginning. I almost didn't notice it.
My grandmother has a trick for fevers she would do with my dad and uncle. She said it sounded mean, but she would fill the bath with cold water, which did cool them down very quickly.
What I do to feel better is to ignore the symptoms or the feeling of being sick.. -Watch you're favorite movies (you obviously have time) -T.V, -anything to find relaxing in general Of course if you have a stomach virus... that can be quite hard
Woah, this is so _sick_
Pretty cool! I've never heard the first one, but I guess that can be more of a cultural thing

BLACKNEND back home (Brazil) it was mostly about cold stuff, so ice cream was forbidden as well, but for different reasons :)
this isn’t about being sick but when i got my tonsils out i refused to eat or drink anything, so after days of surviving on otter pops i had to go to the hospital so they could hook me up to an iv to get rehydration, calories and other things
I'm sick and I'm watching this when I'm supposed to be doing my essay
i also get worried about the no dairy rule! yayyyy! milkshakes for all!

The thing is, whether or not it's true, I personally believe that if my brain tells me "this will work" or "this will get me feel better faster" then I'll start to notice it actually working, even if it's just me imagining it... So... Good enough for me!
When I'm sick, I either eat fruit and stay warm, or if I have a potential to vomit, drink a lot of room temperature water and stay warm and try to avoid lying down unless I'm sleeping.
Greg eating the ice cream and Doritos is my favorite thing ever

The myth that most heat leaves your head is so widespread that my grandfather (a skier, in both cross country and downhill and a knack for science) taught me it.
I was taught to not have dairy (not because of mucus) or Sugar because both would feed the cold. With the exception of if you were puking then you were allowed to drink a cup of hot Jello (just pour a little of the pack into a mug of hot water) so it would coat your throat and help protect it from the acid in your stomach.
tysm! I stopped doing the wrong things and became better!
I drink tea , with honey lemon and ginger , it helps a lot with my sore throat and stomachs aches , my mom also makes me a mint tea , which is just boiling mint on the stove with water until the water is green , this helps a lot with stomachache
I do a type of yoga when I'm sick, it helps my body rejuvenate and feel clean and focused. It usually helps me a lot throughout the day. Please make a video on the benefits of yoga
When I was younger, my family said ginger was great when you where sick. My mom gave me ginger-ale, and I threw up all over the kitchen floor.
When I'm sick I watch ASAPscience, it makes me feel a bit better
When I'm sick I usually use my laptop or do anything to keep me happy bcoz i don't get sick (usually 4-6 times a year) so when I am i feel so crappy
What helps pretty good against a cold , especially against the coughing is "drinking" Onion juice. You need a mug or something, cut an onion into it and add some rock sugar. Then cover it with ceran wrap and on the next day or after a few hours you can pour yourself a spoon of the juice.
2:40 THANK YOU. It drives me crazy to see people sneezing and coughing into their hands!
2:11 😂😂 that ice cream/dorito combo seems unlikely to help with sickness.
You guys are amazing! I was admittedly hoping for more outtakes ;)
I always think “I should’ve gone to school today” and then one day I actually go to school while I’m sick and almost die.
