Are colds a regular illness in your household?

With the arrival of the first winter chills, one has to start taking precautions to avoid catching colds. In order to steer clear of winter's physical abuse and keep the family healthy during this season, one has to get used to leading a healthy lifestyle, so here is some advice:
- Try to avoid close contact with the sick. 
- Regularly and meticulously wash your hands. Cold microbes are easily caught and transmitted; by shaking hands with another person, touching other children's' toys, or simply pressing the doorbell or touching the stair banister for example.
- Follow a healthy and balanced diet. Take your time to enjoy a good breakfast together as a family. Everyone will be more productive throughout the day, both at work and at school.
- Encourage your family to exercise more, joining in yourself. Extracurricular sports activities naturally help kids' health and reduce the risk of colds. This also applies to the elderly.  If your child gets healthy he/she will feel better, just like you.
- Help the elderly and children to stay well hydrated. Drinking plenty of liquids helps the respiratory secretions to flow better and reduces coughing. An enjoyable and healthy way to drink liquids is in an herbal tea, which apart from being tasty is also beneficial and will aid breathing when you suffer from colds. 

Teach your children how to look after themselves. Teach them to get healthy, to "get the herbal tea".
