00:00
All right, sister for generations,
00:01
we've always heard of El Sereno.
00:04
Sereno. Did you ever hear that growing up?
00:05
I have brother. But you know what?
00:07
My mom didn't really call it El Sereno.
00:12
lo las Patas des Calas or like,
00:15
yeah, or like con pelo mu or whatever.
00:18
That's what she would say.
00:20
I mean, creno technically translates to like the do like that
00:23
like the mist the morning mist and I think even like back
00:27
in the day it was like a guard in Spain.
00:29
So like El Sereno is gonna get you.
00:30
It's like it's a person.
00:32
Yeah, exactly. Guard but El Sereno gets you sick,
00:35
right? That's the myth.
00:36
So here to talk to us today about how El Sereno affects
00:40
our abi ability to fight off in Ferid is Alexis an urban
00:46
of foods and medicine.
00:47
We got professionals in the building.
00:52
How's it going? Hey,
00:54
what's up guys? And thank you guys for having us on
00:56
here. We're really excited.
00:57
No. Yeah. Thank you.
00:58
I mean the honor is all ours.
01:00
Again, we've heard our stories from our moms,
01:02
right? Like, oh doesn't poo poo.
01:04
But like, what's actually true and what's actually just kind of
01:07
like an old urban myth or legend.
01:10
Exactly. Like, what's the science behind why this happens?
01:16
we, we still don't have our MD,
01:18
so we are still not fully licensed,
01:22
But I mean, we do study a lot and we learn
01:25
all these things and we learn so many things and we look
01:27
through so many studies.
01:29
we grew up in Mexican households.
01:31
So we always heard these myths.
01:34
you know, like even recently,
01:35
like the last time my parents visited me a couple of months
01:38
ago, they were like,
01:39
oh, like, erma Chamara,
01:41
like whatever, blah,
01:42
blah, blah, you know,
01:43
but as you guys pointed out,
01:44
there was a study that you guys kind of highlighted in our
01:48
nostrils and like in our whole body and everything,
01:50
we have ways to fight off infections,
01:53
right? And this would be our immune system as we know
01:56
And basically like what they found in this study is that
01:59
when there's, when it's cold outside or when you're in cold
02:02
temperatures,, our immune system isn't working as well.
02:06
And so it has a harder time basically fighting off some of
02:10
these infections. So like the viruses and stuff,
02:12
I think one important thing to point out though is does the
02:15
sereno cause, you know,
02:18
you being sick and there's a difference between correlation and causation and
02:22
in this case, you know,
02:24
like it's not necessarily saying,
02:25
oh, if you're wet you're gonna get sick or the wetness
02:28
makes you sick. It's more of a correlation.
02:31
Right. When it's cold outside our immune system doesn't work as
02:34
well. So we tend to get sick.
02:37
That makes sense. See,
02:38
my mom never explained it like that.
02:41
A ocii I studied for accounting sister.
02:47
they were talking about Sereno,
02:48
I'm getting sick. Alexis.
02:52
What about our mom's remedios?
02:54
Do they actually work?
02:56
Yeah, from personal experience,
02:57
I would say that it does work because every time my mom
02:59
will cook up like a car or she'll give me like,
03:01
you know, drink this for some reason.
03:07
I don't think there,
03:09
like scientific research out there yet behind that as like providers and
03:14
Irvin mentioned we're not like licensed yet but,
03:16
you know, we still like read up on like,
03:18
how can we recommend like certain things,
03:21
you know, easy things that you can do to just feel
03:23
better, which is eating like a,
03:25
like hot soup, like warm drinks.
03:28
if you have a sore throat like gargling salt water
03:31
staying hydrated things like that,
03:33
those are all things that can definitely make us feel better and
03:36
help our immune system kind of revamp itself and,
03:38
and you know, help fight off like whatever viral illness is
03:41
going on and things like that.
03:43
The tequila does tequila like taking a shot of tequila.
03:46
Does it help with the sore throat too?
03:48
Because I know I had to do that one.
03:52
You know what that one?
03:54
Nome la. But I do know that I think alcohol increases
04:00
like your body temperature,
04:02
like your internal body temperature.
04:03
So maybe there's something,
04:05
you know, that's another research that I and I are gonna
04:07
have to do. You got,
04:09
bro. What about you guys too?
04:11
The journal of, of foods.
04:12
It's like the Caldo remedies,
04:13
the tequila remedies like that's what we did.
04:16
We got some testing to do.
04:17
Let me know if you guys need some lab rats and the
04:22
whole Latino community funded.
04:25
thank you guys for these tips.
04:26
We're definitely gonna keep it in mind for our routines like
04:28
you said, the caldo all that stuff and then just
04:31
keeping our bodies warm and fighting the cold off.
04:34
So and where can people find you online?
04:36
Just so they can also keep up with the foods?
04:38
Yeah, you guys can look us up on,
04:39
we're on Instagram and Tik Tok and youtube Foods and Medicine.
04:44
Yeah, we're gonna have a lot of more of these informational
04:47
