INTRODUCTION: IT’S CALLED A COLD FOR A REASON Kate: (01:00) Are you concerned about getting sick or your kids going back to school and being exposed to something that makes them sick? Well, let's examine that today on this podcast. We're so glad that you joined us. I'm Kate, and I'm here with Joette. Joette: Hi, Kate. Kate: Hi! I want to start with the basics. Joette. It seems like every year, especially in the fall, people can expect to get a cold. What do you think about that? Joette: Well, it's called a cold for a reason, in my estimation. It's because, generally, it's the shift in weather. The weather gets cold, or, even if you're not in an area where the weather gets cold, there's a shift — an environmental shift. And it has been commonly understood that if someone gets a chill that they, you know, “Put your hat on, or you'll catch your death of cold!” Well, I believe that that can be so.

Well, it's making sure that there's strength in that terrain. And the terrain is upon which the person is depending to get through those times when their body might need to make a shift, like releasing toxins, et cetera. So, let me be more specific. I believe that if germs are ever-present — and that's the way people see them — then why is it that people only get germy colds and flus at a certain time of the year? Pretty much it's only in the fall, sometimes in the winter — January, February. (I’m talking about those parts … I'm talking about the U.S., but also in Europe, et cetera.) When that cold comes — that cold weather comes — ...
