Kindness Trumps Vitamin C

Cold season is just around the corner, if not already here.  I'm not just talking about cold weather, I'm talking about the nasty little bug that takes a grown man down; that kind of cold.  It seems that people who receive kindness because of their illness heal a bit faster than those who don't ~ so says a research team from the University of Wisconsin.  

"Kindness may be more effective for treating sickness than zinc, vitamin C, and even anti-viral drugs," stays study author David Rakel, M.D.  "That may be because it helps relieve stress and helps boost the immune system."

Kind (n) - warm-hearted, friendly, generous with good will, pleasant, agreeable, accomodating.

This is Biblical medicine, people.  Wisdom from the beginning of time.

Never let loyalty and kindness get away from you! Wear them like a necklace; write them deep within your heart.  Proverbs 3:3
