If you find that you're rarely sick, it could actually because you're really sexy.

It turns out, attractive people have better immune systems, according to a new study of blood tests.

Scientists at the Texas Christian University asked people to rank over 150 people based on their looks.

Participants with classic indications of beauty - such as bright eyes or symmetrical faces - had more white blood cells, which work to fight off infection.

It also found typically good-looking people were less likely to have experienced development problems in the womb or during childhood.

Leader of the study Summer Mengelkoch said

"People who go out to a bar looking to talk to someone attractive are often dismissed as being shallow"

"But they are really just following their instincts to find a high-quality mate.'

So the next time you find yourself picking up a sniffle, it might be just because you're not hot enough!
