Flu Season is Upon Us… Are You Ready?

How will you manage This Year’s Flu Season?
It has begun. The fall marks the official beginning of flu season. Some of you may have already been the unfortunate victims of this highly contagious virus – and some of us are avoiding anyone with a runny nose or cough. Though February may be peak season, it’s never too early to start boosting your immune system and start combating germs.
The flu can spread quickly
According to the current CDC Flu Activity & Surveillance report, reports of the flu virus are begging to come in. And with many of us traveling over the holidays, contracting and spreading the virus can be done quite easily. A harmless handshake with the sweet man sitting next to you on a plane, who appears to look quite healthy, can mean you’ll be stuck in bed in a few days. Flu symptoms don’t usually appear until a few days after you’ve contracted the virus. However, despite not showing any symptoms, a person can begin to spread the virus days before they even know they’re sick.
How can you prevent contracting the flu?
How will you manage to go to work, socialize and continue living your life without wearing a face mask and gloves whenever you leave your house? Don’t worry. There are a few measures you can take to increase your chances of bypassing flu season.
Some recommendations:
- Avoid close contact with sick individuals.
- Wash your hands often with soap and water or use PureWorks™ Antibacterial Foam.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth.
- Clean off machines at gyms before and after you use them.
- Consume a healthy diet with immune-boosting nutrients.
Additionally, there are some groups that are at greater risk than the rest of the population with health concerns that compromise their immune system. The groups include: pregnant women, adults 65yrs and older, children younger than 5 (especially those under 2yrs), and individuals with asthma, diabetes, heart disease, cancer or other serious health problems. It’s especially important for these individuals to maintain a healthy immune system.
Fortunately, Youngevity’s Seasonal Immune Support Pak™ was developed to provide immune-boosting support to individuals when they need it the most. It includes 5 unique capsules and tablets that target the immune system; Ultimate™ Zinc Fx™, Immu-911™, Vitamin C, Killer Biotic FX™, and C-FX™.
