Educate Your Immune System
Nice little article! And it confirms my anecdotal evidence, so it feels good. ;)<p>I had a wild childhood: it happened to me to eat hamster food from his cage, eating dirt, eating sand, raw tomatoes directly from the plant, drinking waters from random streams; drinking raw milk without boiling it few minutes after milking it by hand, eating raw eggs, and when I wasn't in school, like during the summer, I had one shower per week, or less...<p>Don't worry: growing up I am back to civilization. But I have to say that I am <i>never</i> sick. Also during winter.<p>I pity all those kids and their urban childhood, they will have to endure weird intolerance to random things. I am grateful to my parents.<p>Back then growing children was still a simple thing, nowadays mothers and fathers are so scared by society.
