Your Immune System Is Your Best Line of Defense. First, Get Enough Sleep.
First, and always, during cold and flu season, it is imperative to stay healthy. Even if you do pick up a bug somewhere, you may never know it if your body's natural defenses go into attack mode and kill that sucker before it can take hold. Feel a scratchy throat? Drink tons of fluids (tea, water, hot broth) and get yourself to bed for rest and sleep, since your body needs its armies fully recharged before the immune system can fight off invaders. Sleep is job number one since it's how your system "recharges" and you need to be fully girded for the battle ahead.
What does "enough" sleep mean? It's different for everyone, as is the right time to hit the sack. Try this: Go to bed early enough that you don't need to set an alarm to wake up in the morning feeling rested. This could be 10 p.m. for some people or midnight for others. Try it. Go to bed an hour earlier than you usually do and see if you wake up before your alarm. Now you're ready to meet the world and fight off whatever nasty bugs are floating around out there.
