Every year about this time, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention begins to sing a familiar song-it's about the upcoming cold and flu season.
Since both colds and flu are virus based, no known medicine will work against them. So just what can you do when you start to feel those aches and pains that indicate you have a cold or the flu?
Here are some tips to get you started, provided by Mosaic Nutraceuticals, a Dallas-based natural supplement company.
* Get a flu shot.
* Wash your hands regularly to prevent the spread of germs.
* Use a tissue when covering sneezes and coughs.
* Drink plenty of fluids, especially water, to stay healthy.
* Get fresh air to escape dry indoor environments where cold and flu viruses survive.
* Exercise regularly for overall health.
* Take vitamin C. It can help boost your immune system, too.
A recent study conducted at Addenbrooke's Hospital, the University of Cambridge School of Clinical Medicine, has demonstrated that vitamin C can help protect against both respiratory infections and cardiovascular disease.
So what's the best way to get that extra boost of vitamin C?
One of the handiest methods today is the individually wrapped, soft candy chews available from Mosaic Nutraceuticals. These orange-flavored supplements are loaded with the vitamin C that has been shown to reduce the time you are sick with a cold.
