That article recommends eating a better diet. Sure. Seems a bit idealist. Here's some more actionable advice: everyone should take a multivitamin and magnesium glycinate. If you live somewhere that gets a winter take vitamin D too.

I'm speaking from experience here, I used to get sick every winter and my skin would get so dry it would crack and bleed. Take your vitamins.

    Probably a good idea, yea. The fat also helps with Vit D absorption/bio-availability, so it's probably an even better idea to take them together (Krill oil + VitD/Multivit)
