No matter if you work in a corporate environment or other, there will always be people spreading the flu, colds or other winter infections by simply sneezing. No matter where you go there is a chance you will pick up the common cold, especially when people insist on going to work even though they are ill, this is when viruses and bacteria are spread throughout an office. Trying to avoid people that have the flu is not always possible. However, one can boost their immune system during the cold and flu season which will help you prevent becoming infected. Most people find it difficult to choose over the counter cold and flu medications as there is a large selection available. Such medications comprise of various different ingredients and one should check the ingredients and match them to your symptoms. Once you have assessed your symptoms, then choose a medication that is appropriate and make sure you understand what the medication is for before purchasing it. To date there has been no definite cure found for the common cold and flu as these illnesses are viruses, and each year new strains of the virus manifest making it difficult to treat. Studies have also revealed that vitamin C and Echinacea have shown inconclusive results for preventing such viruses, in spite of many people’s beliefs, although studies revealed that a daily dose reduced the severity and duration of colds. If you have severe cold and flu symptoms you should consult a pharmacist at Priceline.com.au who will recommend the right medications, as Price Line carried a wide range of traditional and alternative solutions. Recently studies have shown that taking zinc tablets or lozenges helps reduce the symptoms much quicker. Taking a zinc supplement daily lessons the severity and also speeds up recovery. Zinc should only be taken at the onset of flu and not for long periods of time as zinc can cause nausea and diarrhoea. The flu vaccine can help prevent the flu but again there are so many strains of the virus, this is not a guarantee unless it is specific for a certain type of flu virus. In many instances people find that they become even more ill after having the flu vaccine. The best and safest way to protect yourself from colds and flu is to eat a healthy diet and keep the body well hydrated by drinking warm drinks. At the change of every season most people are going to catch the flu or cold virus. Coughing and sneezing spreads the virus, and one can pick the virus up by simply touching objects that an infected person has touched such as doorknobs, railings and other.
