Mr.mm and I noticed many years ago that one of the very earliest symptoms we would get that we were coming down with something was fluid retention. It happened days before any other symptoms showed up.
Then we’d show the other symptoms and knew it was breaking when we started having to pee every hour on the hour for a day or two.
The advantage of being aware of that is that if we feel like we are starting to retain fluid for no reason, we immediately start a supplement regime for fighting colds.
