However, there are a few that are, shall we say, unusual &#8211; dunking your head in hydrogen peroxide every morning for instance, or eating dirt. No matter what the secret is, Stone takes a non-judgmental look at it, examining both the scientific and anecdotal evidence for each. And he tries each of these secrets on himself &#8211; some have become part of his daily life, some not so much. In the end, Stone asserts that you need to do what&#8217;s best for you &#8211; what works for one person may not work for another. Your key to success (and good health) lies with two important factors &#8211; belief that what you&#8217;re doing is working, and consistency. Armed with those facts and some new ideas, you can look forward to your healthiest winter yet!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s the cold and flu season again &#8211; what do you do to combat that &#8220;achy, sniffly&#8221; feeling?
