you feel constantly surrounded by a chorus of coughs and sneezes — at work, at the grocery store , or even at home — you ’re not alone . Here are five things you can do to avoid catching a cold especially in this weather.
1 . Wash your hands.
Do so often , especially after using the bathroom or touching inanimate objects , like bathroom faucets and door handles , in public places. Also , try to stop touching your face . It allows germs easily access into the body.
2 . Go to bed early .
You need plenty of sleep to keep your immune system in tip - top shape this time of year .
3 . Eat healthy food with plenty of vitamins .
This will also keep your immune system going strong . So make an effort to fill your plate with vegetables at lunch and dinner , and snack on fruit throughout the day .
4 . Exercise.
do your best to stay moving during the cooler months . Regular exercise is another immune- system booster , which can prevent cold bugs you do catch from making you sick .
