I think you need to deal with the reasons for wanting a day off school.  It doesn't really bode well for your future if you fake being ill to take a day off school.  You have holidays its not like you're there 365 days a year is it?  Some people really value their education and will go to school despite being ill so there is no reason to 'need' a day of unless you are genuinely ill or something really bad has happened.

vitamin C is an antioxidant, that is also involved in the immune system.  if you're maintaining enough vitamin C in your body, then taking more is just going to make your urine very expensive, and you will simply excrete it.  having enough vitamin C will aid in warding off illnesses, but will not guarantee it.  not having enough may incline you towards becoming sick easier as your body's immune system isn't at it's fullest.  although, while you are sick, your body may use up more vitamin C as it's fighting off the infection, so that increasing your intake to offset the increased utilization would be recommended.\n\ncolds and flus are caused by viruses however, and so there is no direct relation between not getting sick and vitamin C (again this is in your case where you probably are fine).  to defeat a virus, your body must mount the appropriate defense - this based on your previous exposures and your immune system (which for unknown reasons can vary greatly from person to person).  viruses and colds are also shared by contact with infective agents.  perhaps the reason you did not get sick, was because you were not in direct contact with your bosses (typing on the same keyboard, sharing common space) or perhaps your hygiene is better (washing your hands for 30 seconds with soap and warm water, not touching your eyes and mouth).  Finally, you could have been exposed, but your body either recognized the virus and was able to mount a quick immune response, or your immune system is simply better at fighting off infection.  Note that by the time you start showing actual symptoms, the virus has already established itself.  The symptoms are your body's response to get rid of the virus (fever, runny nose, sore throat, etc).

Amp up on Vitamin C and Zinc. Drink a glass of hot green tea with Echinacea and Honey in the morning.\n\n Eat only fruits and vegatables during the day plus avoid mucous creating foods such as milk, bread and cheese. Fast from eating meat as your digestive system needs to be ridding itself of toxins and meat will slow down the process. Avoid refined sugar in sugary drinks. \n\nAdd a tablespoon of raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar, cinnamon, and wild oregeno oil to a glass of apple juice,  pomogranete juice or grape juice three times a day. Add cayenne if you have mucous in your chest, eyes, ears, nose or throat. Drink six glasses of distilled water each day. Drink three glasses of clean water with 1/4 tablespoon of unrefined sea salt.\n\nDrink a glass of hot Green tea with Echinacea and Honey in the evening with Camomile and take a hot bath before you go to bed. Sit in a bathtub with hot water. Add a cup of apple cider vinegar and a tablespoon cayenne. Sweat out the toxins and go to sleep.\n\n All sickness comes from the gut. By alkalizing your body and cleansing you will not only cure your cold but also give your body, gut, and skin a wonderful treat.

Because you are sick with a cold.

What else is going on in your life?  I find I get sick when I am under too much pressure and I need a rest - my body makes one for me.  If it lasts too long, I either really needed it, or the other obstacles are taking longer in my life for me to deal with.\n\nRemember, there is time enough for everything.  Peace is paramount!  Get lots of rest and make yourself happy - indulge in a novel, watch movies all day, eat your favorite chocolates while you play computer games all day long - do what you never have the time to relax and do.  \n\nIf after 2 or 3 days of that you are not feeling better, then you should see someone.  Besides, while most people get over a cold in 7 days, it actually takes 10 - 14 days to completely recover from it, in most cases.

I am one to always "cure" myself.  Lots of rest, liquids.  Make yourself eat something even it it's a bowl of broth or crackers.  Sweat out the fever.  Get into the shower.  You won't feel like it but it will make you feel better.  Get your vitamins like Zinc, Vitamin C.  Ginger Ale is all I can take when I'm sick.  It may take a good week to get over.  I just went through this a couple weeks ago---it lasted a good 5 days.

Hiya . First of all you need to consume less calories than you burn off . Try eating a diet that has a low carbohydrate intake and eliminate sugary things etc , comsume carbs only for breakfast and lunch and they are to be of complex carbs not crap like sweet stuff . Stick to a higher protein intake so eat stuff like Tuna , protein shakes , salmon , lean chicken and salads and fresh steamed vegys for carbs just basicly healthy stuff and not too kmuch food .\n\nSecond exercise lets say 30 mins - 45 mins of cycling or running a day but be sure to push your self because its likley you will stop loosing weight if your not excercising hard enougth . So pump up the intensity. \n\nImportant points are .\n\n1. Be consistant without it you will never get results because it can take 3 weeks before a diet / excercise program starts to work propley so dont budge .\n\n2 .Dont miss rums / excercise even if your sick go for a refreshing walk and make sure you dont slip on the diet . \n\nI hope this helps

Drinking fluids helps to replenish water you've lost through vomiting, sneezing, coughing, sweating, and other symptoms. The fastest way to recovery is to get plenty of rest, as the flu will fatigue you because your body uses all available energy to combat the viral infection. You may have loss of appetite, but force yourself to eat something so that you won't fatigue even more. Take some Vitamin C and Zinc to help boost your immune system so that you don't get sick again afterwards.

Rest and plenty of fluids.  There is no cure for the common cold, yet, despite the many claims...\n\nChicken soup not so hot?\nIf people believed all the old wives' tales about catching and preventing colds and flu, they would stock their cupboards with chicken soup all winter and never step out into the cold. But the myths often have no place in scientific reality, so if you wonder whether you should starve a cold and feed a fever (or if you've got it the wrong way around), try this quiz (originally written by the American Lung Association).\n\nMyth: Spending time outside in cold weather can cause a cold or flu.\n\nFact: Exposure to cold weather does not bring on a cold or flu. It can, however, cause pneumonia, which can come about when someone already has the flu. This is the most serious complication of the flu and is more likely to occur in the elderly and people whose immune systems have been weakened by other medical conditions.\n\nMyth: It is possible to catch the flu from a flu shot.\n\nFact: The flu vaccine is made from an inactive virus, so it is impossible to get the flu from it. Some people may be sore where the vaccine is injected and may feel unwell for a couple of days with fever and muscle aches. Anyone who is acutely ill with fever or is allergic to egg or another component of the vaccine should not get the flu shot.\n\nMyth: An upset stomach is a symptom of the flu.\n\nFact: Stomach distress is rarely a symptom of the flu. Other viruses, bacteria and food poisoning are more common causes of nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea.\n\nMyth: Large doses of vitamin C can prevent colds and cure them quickly.\n\nFact: This is not proven, although consuming the daily requirement of vitamin C is good for overall health.\n\nMyth: Herbal treatments such as echinacea and zinc will cure a cold quickly.\n\nFact: To date, there is no conclusive scientific evidence that either can cure or prevent a cold. The best way to avoid a cold is to avoid close contact with others who have it, wash hands frequently and avoid eye and nose rubbing.\n\nMyth: A bowl of chicken soup and hot toddies can help cure a cold.\n\nFact: Chicken soup has no power to cure a cold. However, hot liquids can soothe a scratchy throat or a cough. Hot toddies should also be avoided during a cold. Alcoholic beverages can increase the body's chance of dehydration, and therefore make symptoms worse.\n\nMyth: It is best to starve a cold and feed a fever.\n\nFact: Neither of these is a good remedy. When fighting a cold or fever, the body needs

Start taking a zinc supplement as soon as you realize you are getting a cold.  Drink lots of water and juice with vitamin c.  If you are congested, you can take decongestants in the form of cold pills and drink warm liquids like chicken broth to help break up the mucus.  Make sure you are washing your hands often (20 seconds of lathering and rinse under warm water) and after you blow your nose or cough - if you are constantly blowing you can use some Purell to sanitize your hands, but you should still wash them with good old soap and warm water before you touch your face/eyes/mouth or eat.  Get plenty of rest.  Once you are better, continue to wash your hands often -as this is the best defense against getting sick.  I hope you feel better soon.

Drinking lots of fluids, orange juice, fruits and vegetables when you are able. Try staying away from heavy greasy foods. You should get plenty of rest. That's to get better.\n\nFeeling better fast might require an alka seltzer (seltzer water and crackers are usually good), or perhaps some pepto bizmol(the pink stuff).
