Protect yourself from Swine Flu

* Wash your hands thoroughly; frequent hand-washing is the best way to prevent many common Infections. Carry hand sanitizers if soap and water aren’t readily available.

* Cover your mouth and nose when you sneeze or cough. To avoid contaminating your hands, cough or sneeze into a tissue or a handkerchief.

* Get enough sleep – 8 hours of rest each night will keep your immune system strong.

• Stay hydrated; drink 8-10 glasses of water every day to flush toxins from your system and maintain good moisture and mucous production in your sinuses.

• Be physically active. A brisk walk for 30-40 minutes, 3 times a week, boosts the immune system by increasing circulation, oxygenating the body, purging toxins through sweat, and releasing tension and stress.

* Avoid alcohol. it makes your body weak and decreases the ability to fight viral infections.

Stay away from sick people. Flu spreads when particles of the virus spread through droplets in the air if the sick person coughs, sneezes, or talks. So stay a few feet away from them and especially avoid any physical contact.
