Don't Catch a Bug This Cold and Flu Season

By:Rick Young


Do you usually find yourself sneezing and coughing during cold and flu season? If so, why not take some simple actions that could help you stay sniffle-free this year.



The following tips from CyberWize, a company that makes supplements for stress, may help you avoid getting sick:



* Eat a cup of low-fat yogurt daily. Some studies show that low-fat yogurt can reduce your susceptibility to colds by 25 percent. Researchers believe the bacteria in yogurt may help the immune system fight disease.



* Keep your hands clean. Wash your hands often with soap and water. Use an alcohol-based hand cleaner if washing your hands isn't an option at the time.



* Help stop the spread of germs. Encourage sick co-workers or classmates to go home, especially if they have a fever. If someone in your household is sick, make sure to spray the house with a disinfectant.



* Put down the cigarettes. Some research shows higher incidence of the flu among smokers, compared with nonsmokers.



* Be health-conscious when traveling. Don't put your face on a pillow or blanket provided for you on airplanes or trains. Instead, bring your own pillow or blanket to use or create makeshift ones with your coat or scarf.



* Avoid stress. Stress can lower the immune system, making you more susceptible to catching a cold or the flu. Taking a supplement formulated to reduce stress, such as Vital StressX, can help reduce your mental strain. Made by CyberWize, Vital StressX contains a combination of seven herbs, known as adaptogens, shown in clinical studies to help your body adapt to stressful conditions, boost energy, sharpen memory and strengthen the immune system.



"The effects of daily stress cannot be overstated," said Dr. Ronald Wheeler, a urologist in Sarasota, Fla. "Vital StressX is likely your best first step in stress management."
