did Jesus fully experience life as a Middle Easterner 2000 years ago?

like, was he subject to food poisoning? contaminated water? lice? intestinal parasites? bug bites? prickliness of nettles? did spicy food 'burn' ? Did He have BO ? Could a splinter or thorn pierce his heel? Tooth decay? Eye crud in the morning? Grinding his teeth while He slept ? Leg cramps ?

Seriously. If he was impervious to all of that, did He really 'share' in the ancient time ambience? If He wasn't susceptible to, let's say BO, and everyone else was (why wouldn't they be?) it seems odd it wasn't remarked upon in Scripture.
But if Peter stank and the Pharisees stank, and Herod stank, who would notice that Jesus stank?
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
