Cold and flu season is among us. What can we do to prevent the spreading of viruses like the H1N1 swine flu?

First of all, H1N1 swine flu is no deadlier than seasonal flu.

What are the symptoms of H1N1 flu?
They are somewhat similar to symptoms of the seasonal flu. You can expect:

*Fever
*Cough
*Body Aches
*Sore Throat
*Headaches
*Chills and fatigue
*Eye pain
*Occasionally runny nose, nausea, diarrhea and vomiting
*Lack of appetite
*Shortness of breath

What preventative measures can you take to avoid the H1N1 flu virus?

*Frequent hand washing with soap and water for at least 20 seconds
*Avoid touching the face especially the mouth, nose and eyes
*Boost your immune system by eating a balanced diet. More fresh fruits and vegetables, drink plenty of water, eat foods that contain vitamin C, vitamin D, zinc and omega 3 oils
*Exercise
*Avoid unnecessary stress
*Get plenty of sleep
*Drink lots of water
*Cough or sneeze into your elbow or kleenex and dispose of the kleenex immediately. Then wash your hands
*Avoid crowds or crowded places

It’s not necessary to get the H1N1 flu vaccination if you’re healthy and you have a healthy immune system.

Keep in mind the H1N1 vaccine was produced very quickly and it hasn’t been tested on humans.

    Excellent information Sophia. I have discussed this with a few of my doctors and all of them have stated that its not as deadly as the seasonal flu that millions of people get. I believe there is a lot of over-hype with this.
