Finding a cure for the common cold. Now I appreciate that there are certain groups of people who are affected by the common cold than others, there always have been. However if you can limit the affect of a cold just by exercising, do we really need to spend millions on reasearch into a cure because after all the cure won't stop it spreading.

Hope they do find a cure for it, I'm sick of catching them! Personally, I don't think exercise really helps as I exercise a lot but I still catch every cold there is!

I've been led to believe that the 'common cold' is a mutating virus, and simply fortifying your body's stock of nutrients will make diddly squat difference to whether you get a cold or not.
