Want to avoid the cold and flu?

If you're like the rest of us, you have ask the question is there any effective cold and flu prevention methods that could keep you well this season?

Here are the general principles:

  • Eat well by including plenty of fruits and vegetables in your diet.
  • Avoid sweets and processed foods.
  • Stay warm – wear appropriate clothing and shoes to keep warm and keep your head and ears covered outdoors.
  • Stay fit – exercise to keep your body healthy, in good shape and to burn calories.
  • Get enough sleep – your body needs to rest and rejuvenate. Insufficient sleep strains the brain and weakens your immunity.
  • Wash hands often – We all pick up germs and viruses on pencils, doorknobs, computer keyboards, etc... Hand washes them away.

Besides all the above, essential oils can be your first line of defense with germs and bugs of all kinds. Remember, many essential oils are not only antibacterial, but antiviral and antifungal as well.

Let's get down to specifics:

* Diffuse antimicrobial essential oil – Diffusing the right essential oil can not only decrease your exposure to cold and flu bugs in the air, but it can strengthen your immunity to them. What essential oil is best? Studies conducted at a University show that the Spice for life essential oil blend has a 99.968 percent success rate against airborne bacteria.

Some people prefer the Lemon essential oil spray for convenience. They find it easier to spray their hands when they've touched something that might be contaminated with germs... or spray around toilets, door handles, etc., before using.
