LET THIS "FAIRY GODMOTHER" OF HERBS CARRY YOU THROUGH THE REST OF THE WINTER

the snow is falling outside and cold winds are blowing. But inside, co-workers are coughing while schools and day-care centers look like holiday hotels for every cold and flu bug in the neighborhood. It's midwinter, and getting through the rest of the season without getting sick is on everyone's mind.

To do that, your immune system has to be strong. You probably already know the basics

EAT a diet rich in fresh veggies, whole grains, legumes and fruit

DRINK lots of water, preferably filtered

GET REGULAR EXERCISE, if possible in the great outdoors

SLEEP WELL, and, in winter, a little more than usual -- a minimum of 7 to 9 hours per night
