There is 2 origins for one to be " resistant" to cold
either the detoxination that the cold will allow is not needed because the
normal production of toxins is easely eliminated by the organs in charge of
that job ( liver kidney)
or viral triggered desintoxification will be so overwhelming that it will
endanger the survival of the organism and so the immune system will not
start to release the wolf in the sheep pen .
The terminology used around infectuous diseases is a projection of our own
way of thinking our relationship to the world. As long it is perceived as a
struggle for existence or a battle , there is no opening of the mind to
other paragdim.
I don't see the immune system as a police or army but as an organiser of the
symbiotic cooperative relationships of the different elements that
constitute the organism ( cells, bacterias , circulating messengers like
viruses etc...).
