Tips to stay healthy and avoid colds & flu
1. Wash your hands
Common cold and flu viruses spread by direct contact. Avoid
people with colds or the flu like the plague – viruses spread
from their hands to door handles, the telephone or the keyboard
and can live for hours on these surfaces. The next person
touching the same object will pick up these bugs, so wash your
hands often or use alcohol-based hand sanitizers to prevent
these viruses passing into your body.
2. Use tissues and throw them away
These are great for preventing the spread of colds and flu, but
remember that they can harbour viruses and contaminate any
surface they come in contact with.
3. Drink plenty fluid
Avoid becoming dehydrated - a typical healthy adult needs around
1.5 litres of water each day. Drinking water flushes out your
system and helps keep your immune system strong.
4. Control stress
It is well known that stress can weaken your immune system and
may make you more likely to catch a cold than your calmer
counterparts.
5. Eat well
A diet rich in fruit and vegetables can help you avoid many
health problems. Foods rich in vitamins A and C such as citrus
fruit, dark blue and red berries, mangoes, apricots, carrots and
beetroot support the immune system.
6. Avoid alcohol
We know this seems boring, but drinking excessive amounts of
alcohol is bad for immune cells, which become disorientated and
confused…just like us!
7. Get plenty fresh air
Avoid getting stuck in a room full of people with stale air.
Find fresh air and breathe deeply. This helps the lymphatic
system move protective immune cells around the body.
8. Get more sleep
Achieving restful sleep each night (8 hours) helps the body
repair itself and build the immune system. If you need help
sleeping, see our tips on how you can sleep better.
9. Avoid smoking
This is an irritant to the delicate tissues of your respiratory
tract and increases your susceptibility to viruses that cause
colds and flu.
10. Keep warm
When you are feeling a bit vulnerable to infection, stay out of
the cold night air and avoid the direct stream of
air-conditioned air.
