I wrote the other day about beating the flu by boosting your immune system. Flu can be serious. In the US, more than 200,000 people are hospitalized each year with the flu and 36,000 die!* With flu season fast approaching, it’s a great idea to follow these preventive measures to keep yourself and your loved ones healthy.
Our Top 10 List to Avoid the Flu:
8. Wash your hands often with soap and water. If you can’t wash with soap and water, use an alcohol-based hand rub.
7. Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs are spread this way, as a person touches something that is contaminated with bacteria and then touches his/her eyes, nose or mouth.
6. Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze.
5. Stay home when you are sick. Stay home for at least 24 hours after your fever is gone. If you are coming down with the flu, you can infect others one day before symptoms begin and 5-7 days after becoming sick.
4. Get plenty of sleep.
3. Be physically active.
2. Drink plenty of fluids and eat nutritious foods.*
And our number one way to avoid the flu:
