4 Ways to Stop Getting Sick This Summer

Winter isn’t the only season when sicknesses strike.

While many illnesses most often occur during the winter months, summer colds are also quite common. What’s more, they tend to last longer and have a higher chance of recurring.

Here are four ways you can avoid getting sick during the summer season:

Keep Your Hands Clean

Avoid spreading germs and getting infected by washing your hands regularly. If you don’t have soap and water available throughout the day, use alcohol-based hand sanitiser, because it can kill flu and cold germs.

Drink Green TeaA beverage that’ll not only keep you refreshed during those hot sunny days, green tea is also packed with antioxidants, which could help your body stop the common cold virus from reproducing at its initial stage of infection.  

Good Nutrition

Make sure you are eating a wide variety of fruits and vegetables daily. Good nutrition is essential to a strong immune system. If there are deficiencies, your immune system will not function well, which makes it more difficult to fight infections.

Exercise Regularly

Regular exercise will strengthen your immune system, and help your body to fight off viral and bacterial infections.
