Avoiding the Flu
« on: January 12, 2008, 04:11:17 PM »
With it being flu season, I figured I'd pass along some tips for avoiding the flu.

1. Eat right! Make sure you get your daily dose of fruits and veggies.
2. Take your vitamins and bump up your vitamin C.
3. Get plenty of exercise because exercise helps build your immune>system.
4. Walk for at least an hour a day, go for a swim, take the stairs instead of the elevator, etc.
5. Wash your hands often. If you can't wash them, keep a bottle of antibacterial stuff around.
6. Get lots of fresh air. Open windows whenever possible.
7. Get plenty of rest.
8. Try to eliminate as much stress from your life as you can.*

OR

Take the doctor's office approach. Think about it...

When you go for a shot, what do they do first? Clean your arm with alcohol. Why?

Because alcohol kills germs. So......

I walk to the liquor store (exercise).
I put lime in my Corona (fruit).
Celery in my Bloody Mary (veggie).
Drink outdoor at the patio bar (fresh air).
Get drunk, tell jokes, laugh (relieve stress).
Then pass out (rest).

The way I see it, if you keep your alcohol levels up, flu germs can't get you!!!!

Cheers! It's five o'clock somewhere!
