Tips For Avoiding Cold and Flu This Winter

Hand Washing
This is the first and most important step you
should take to avoid winter germs. Whenever
youve touched something communal including door
handles, handrails on public transport, shopping
trolleys or baskets and the office water cooler
or espresso machine, wash your hands.

Cleaning Habit
Regularly clean surfaces including your computer
keyboard, tablet, telephone handset, mobile
phone, and door handles to remove germs. This
includes when you are cleaning home and at work.
4
Dont Share
Don't share your cups, bowls, plates, and cutlery
as well as hand towels and bath towels unless
everything is washed thoroughly between uses. If
you use disposable paper towels and tissues,
throw them in the bin immediately after use.
5
Get Enough Sleep
Lack of sleep makes us more prone to infection.
Studies have shown those who get less than 7
hours of sleep a night are three times more
likely to catch a cold, than those who sleep 8
hours or more.
6
Stay Active
You should do some exercise on daily basis. This
will boost your immune system and reduce the
chance of getting a cold etc. If you do get sick,
exercise can help improve your recovery time.
7
Eat Well
You should eat properly because a balanced diet
is essential to boost our immune system. You
should include fish, seafood, legumes, nuts
kiwifruit, berries, capsicum, spinach, citrus and
dark green vegetables such a spinach, sweet
potato, carrot, and pumpkin.

Keep Your Home Clean
Keep your home clean to get rid of the germs from
your house. If you don't have so much time to
clean your house, you can take help from the
professional home cleaning services.
