The recommendations of scientists regarding the treatment of SARS and influenza is quite vague: the “official” no drugs, antiviral not working, the effectiveness of vitamin C evidence-based medicine strongly doubt… That is unless I don’t get sick. Tell how to do it.
1. Warmed
Hypothermia itself may not cause colds, but it can weaken defenses of the body, and treacherous bacteria begin to multiply. Remember what mother said, and put on a hat.
2. Wash your hands
95% of people do not know how to wash their hands. And could – several times less sick not only SARS, but also viral pneumonia, and hepatitis, and influenza, and gastrointestinal infections. Tell me every detail in the article “How to wash your hands? You’re whole life doing it wrong”.
3. Walk
Office, public transport, shopping centres – all this is a hotbed of infection. Try to get outside, and be sure to ventilate the house. It tempers your body and reduces the chance to touch some object, teeming with pathogens (e.g., door handle or handrail).
4. Eat vegetables
Researchers from Cambridge have found that vegetables from the cruciferous enhance the activity of white blood cells – they protect us from infections. Lean on all kinds of cabbage, watercress, turnip and radish field.
Pepper and garlic can also be helpful: they irritate the upper respiratory tract, helping the sinuses to be cleansed of mucus. And along with it the germs.
5. Don’t be afraid to kiss
In this way people become infected is quite rare in the human saliva, the amount of “cold” viruses contain much less than in the sinuses.
6. Quit Smoking
According to Korean scientists, Smoking 5 times increases the chance of catching the flu. Not to mention everything else the harm it causes to your health.
7. Don’t touch the face
Do not scratch your nose, do not RUB your eyes and try public places to keep your hands away from the head. At least until you wash your hands or at least wipe them with a disinfectant solution. Otherwise, you can arrange direct delivery of the virus directly to his mouth.
8. Get vaccinated
This is the only way to protect against influenza virus with a probability of 90%. Private and their children: a healthy adult with a strong immune system the disease usually passes without consequences, but the child’s body with her not so easy to manage.
