1. How Do We Get Sick

Most viruses enter the body through the nose and ears. It’s important not only to wash your hands but also to keep from touching your mouth, nose, and eyes.

2. Slow The Load

The easiest way to prevent winter colds is by reducing the viral load. This can be done by distancing yourself from someone who is sick, refraining from physical contact with anyone who is sick, or avoiding crowded places during times when you absolutely can’t get sick.

3. Support Your Body

If you do get sick, you can take steps to mitigate symptoms and help your body fight the virus faster. It is important to not put too much stress on the body so it can use all its energy in fighting off the virus. To help with this you can get more sleep, use intermittent fasting, eat easy-to-digest foods, and take it easy on exercise.
