Prevent the flu in these cold times

January 17, 2023

The flu is a contagious disease caused by a group of viruses, one of which corresponds to influenza. Its symptoms are fever, general malaise, cough, sore throat, body aches, headache, congestion and runny nose. The common flu normally heals in a few days, between 3 and 5. However, if not taken care of, the infection can lead to serious complications of the disease such as other infections, including pneumonia. The virus is easily transmitted from one person to another through coughing or sneezing. Influenza usually spreads rapidly in the form of epidemics during these seasons .

Flu prevention

• The best way to prevent the flu is to get vaccinated every year. This is because flu viruses can change from year to year, so vaccines need to be updated to protect against new strains that appear each year. In addition, the level of protection provided by the previous year's vaccine decreases over time and may be too low to be effective in the year following vaccination.

Flu care

Drink plenty of fluids to avoid becoming dehydrated.
Keep the house ventilated and allow the sun to enter.
Wash your hands frequently to prevent spread.
Avoid alcohol and caffeine.
Rest at home and avoid going to crowded places
Avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth if your hands are not washed.
Use over-the-counter (flu) medications to treat symptoms if necessary, and check with your doctor if they persist or are very strong.

Complementary prevention methods

Among the complementary products for the prevention of the flu, we find:

Oral zinc products – dietary supplements.
Nasal washes or rinses.
Honey.
Vitamin C.
Pro biotics.
Meditation.
