Surviving the Cold and Flu Season

The following are just some of the proactive steps you can take to keep colds and flu’s at bay, along with special notes on recommended products that can help.

Get Plenty of Regular Rest
8-10 hours for adults is best. The body regenerates and heals during sleep. A good old-fashioned nap is good for everyone. Sleep before 10 PM is a deeper, more restful sleep for most individuals. Children’s bedtime should be no later than 8-9 PM. They do their growing during sleep and need more sleep than adults.

Ed. Note: For those having trouble sleeping try our recommended herbal sleep product. For best results we recommend dropping three tablets into hot water and adding some honey, turning it into a hot tea and sipping it before bed. Creating a nighttime tea routine is an excellent way to get yourself in the sleeping mood. In fact, stress weakens our immune system, while routines overall help reduce stress!

Healthy Foods
Eat plenty of healthy foods, especially fruits and vegetables.
Cut up fruits and veggies for snacks. During the flu season especially, make pots of homemade vegetable or chicken soup with plenty of garlic (nature’s antibiotic), and organic chicken/beef stock, if possible.

Ed. Note: For families who don’t eat a lot fresh fruits and vegetables considering supplementing with our Antioxidant Pack. Contains unique concentrated extracts from literally hundreds of fruits and vegetables, providing more support to your immune system than you can get from your diet alone.

Regular Hand Washing
Regular Hand Washing is important to minimize transferring germs. Keep hands away from the eyes. Wash hands before putting ANYTHING in your mouth and after blowing your nose.

Ed. Note: Our non-soap Soap Bars and Lotions are convenient soap-free cleansers that’s great for sensitive skin and is gentle for the face and body. For more information or to order online: CLICK HERE

To keep germs at bay use our recommended concentrated germicide cleaner to disinfect the laundry, bathrooms, doorknobs, phones, computer keyboards, etc. When you disinfect and clean with our recommended germicide the germs aren’t going to regrow for about 72 hours. In contrast, germ regrowth with bleach is about one hour.

Also a product like Lysol® is effective against eight of the most common pathogens, but our recommended germicide kills thirty-two different pathogens! It’s approved for hospital use, and is economical too. Just ½ teaspoon of germicide added to 16oz of water in a spray bottle makes for an effective disinfectant solution you can spray all over the house. For more information: CLICK HERE

Drink Plenty of Pure Water
It’s easy to become dehydrated in the wintertime. Water keeps the toxins flushed out of our systems. Children need more water and less juice. The #1 cause of daytime fatigue and fuzzy thinking is dehydration. Our immune systems require us to be well hydrated, so drink at least eight glasses of pure water a day.

Ed. Note: Tap water is often not clean and tastes bad, and bottled water is expensive not to mention having to lug the water home. Our recommended line of water purifiers can meet any family budget and provides good, clean, easily accessible drinking water for pennies a gallon.

Fresh Air
The EPA says the air in our homes is worse than the air outside. In the wintertime we keep windows and doors closed to keep the cold air out which can exacerbates the problem of indoor air pollution and the recirculation of germs and bacteria that come in the house.

Ed. Note: Our recommended air purifier dramatically decreases the presence of all major forms of indoor air pollution including bacteria, and viruses, etc. Purifies the air in your home, school or office up to up to 3000 sq. ft. There’s also a mobile unit for just one room and/or the car. Great for travel, too! For more information: CLICK HERE
