Preventive Healthcare 

During cold, flu, and virus season, your best defense is regular hand and mouthwash use, as well as basic tactics for keeping your immune system ready to fight off illnesses: exercise, get enough sleep, hydrate, and eat nutritious foods.

 

Hand hygiene—washing your hands with soap and hot water or using sanitizer when necessary—should be done multiple times daily. Everyone should wash their hands after using the restroom, handle any form of waste before and after eating, touch an animal or animal food or toys, and treat a wound. Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze; otherwise, use the inside of the elbow.

 

The body's immune system works against viruses, so you must follow as below,

 

1. Must get a good night's sleep (7-8 hours)

2. Do exercise (over 30 min)

3. Do eat a plant-based diet full of green

 + garlic, apple, chicken soup, Vitamin A &D, Magnesium
