College stress making me sick

I could definitely use something to boost my immune system. My diet is way less than perfect. When it comes to exam time, I'm always sick. A couple of my teammates swear by Airborne so I gave it a try. I thought it worked well but I personally didn't like the flavors. (pink grapefruit? hot apple cider?)

My mom is always telling me to drink lots of OJ but I really never do. Every time I've bought some, it just sits in my fridge until I finally throw it out. Knowing this, my mom sent me these caplets called MicroMune last winter right before final exams. She also sent me One A Day vitamin pills along with them. I took them together (how healthy am I!) for about 2 weeks before exams. I liked them a lot because they worked well together. Lately I've stopped taking them because I keep forgetting! If I could only remember to take them I'd be healthy as ever!

Anyone else have any good ideas for staying healthy during exams?
