Snots

The colours of snot 

Snot can be of different colours. And it doesn’t mean that each one of us has a different colour snot, but that as days go by what comes out of our noses is of a variety of colours.

When we have a cold, we have a lot of snot of a clear colour. This snot helps eliminate the virus. As days go by, and our body is defeating the infection, the snot becomes white or yellow. When our body seems to return bit by bit to normal, the snot becomes more greenish. 

And, remember, whatever the colour of your snot, it is important to use always disposable paper handkerchiefs to avoid infecting yourselves again – and the snot would never end.
