Don’t Underestimate A Cold

The Center for Disease Control (CDC) states on its website that that the average person catches a cold two or three times a year. While colds seem harmless and nothing but annoying, you should not think of them as if they are nothing. Your body produces more antibodies if you don’t treat colds and over time, these antibodies will start to become unhealthy for your kidneys. If you feel sick, see a doctor; don’t just stay home from work like 72 percent of Americans.
