It’s that time of year where the seasons are changing, families are gathering, and germs are spreading. Even down here in Texas we’ve been having some colder temperatures. At the first sign of the sniffles we get bombarded with questions about taking vitamin C or echinacea, or just taking our vitamins in general! Although we’re a homeschooling family we are definitely not secluded from the risk of being exposed to germs. In fact, many times we’re out and about – right where the germs are! This year, though, I’m going into cold and flu season prepared thanks to Puritan’s Pride.

Keeping my up with my intake of vitamins, vegetables, exercise, plenty of sleep and water.
I am very lucky in that I have never had the flu and haven’t had a cold in years. I don’t really do anything special to prepare
I make sure I keep up a balanced diet and take supplements that boost my immune system.
wash our hands constantly and eat right
disinfecting everything and drinking lots of vitamin c
Lots of hand sanitizer and drinking lots of orange juic!
I take many supplements daily, including a healthy dose of Vitamin C.
staying home so many sick people out in the stores shopping right now
I’m preparing by taking supplements like Vitamin D and C. If I feel a sore throat coming on, I immediately take zinc and echinacea and up my dose of vitamin C. I also try to keep my hands from touching my face, and I wash them often. I also disinfect doorknobs, and if I touch something like an ATM or gas pump, I use hand sanitizer immediately afterwards.
Wow! You’re on top of it! 🙂
Hahah, thanks!… and I exercise, eat cleanly, and drink lots of water. (I should get a gold star) =D
You should! 🙂
Flu shot!!
I am prepping for the cold/flu season with lots of lemons, honey, ginger, clove oil, tea tree oil (disinfectant), etc.
I had the flu and pneumonia shot and I try to eat as healthy as I can and get all the vitamins I can
Listening to the body! Giving myself rest when need be and eating plenty of superfoods. We don’t believe in flu shots!
We don’t, either!
Listening to my body. Continuing my prenatal vitamins and avoiding the sick people like they have the plague.
NOT getting the flu shot for one! I’m keeping my daily routine of exercise and taking my vitamins. If I feel sickish I just take EmergenC and get some rest.

Hey,
What a fantastic post! This is so chock full of useful information that nobody can reject the info you have given in the post, this is actually a great work. I have been following clinical studies for almost 10 years on the role of various nutrients in the role of disease prevention. Thousands of journal articles have recommended taking health supplements for the better healthy life. In fact, every one of the 8 primary chronic degenerative diseases (in order, Cardio-Vascular, Cancer, Stroke, Alzheimer’s, Diabetes, Osteoporosis, Arthritis, and Obesity) ALL are nutritionally-based. So health supplement is necessary for our daily life to boost the immune system and lead a healthy life.
