Cultural Pickup: Letting Go of Handshaking
It's flu and cold season again, and everyone is busy rushing to get their shots to try and ward it off. It's always a gamble. As a father of three, I can attest to the accumulative hours my wife and I have waited at the doctor's office for shots (or results of not getting one). But is the flu shot the end all to be all?

Cultural Pickup: Feeling Ill in Japan
The following is not professional medical advice, merely opinion. It's cold and flu season. Yuck. There's nothing worse than hitting that seasonal low, especially when you're supposed to be enjoying it. I remember one year back in elementary school spending not only the two weeks of my Christmas vacation time in bed or in my room, but Christmas morning in bed with a temperature and feeling like I was going to heave at any moment. No fun. But that's life. No one avoids the "demons" of the season every year. What if you could lessen your chances though? Not only yours, but the chances of everyone around you: friends, family, coworkers?

We all understand this and yet most do not consider their health a priority, even with recent medical breakthroughs and technology humans still make poor health decisions.
