Conclusion

 

The origin of the “Bless you” tradition is not entirely clear. But, the most well-known version says that people, who believed your soul can be thrown from your body when you sneeze, said "Bless you” or “God bless you” as a sort of shield against evil spirit invading your body. This is how the expression "Bless you" got created and it is widely used in western countries till now. When your friend sneezes, how about using this expression?
