Get Through The Flu


How to arm yourself in the battle against chills, coughs and body aches:


Gulp some garlic. The bulb is thought to have antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal properties that can help alleviate flu symptoms (onions and cayenne pepper can also do the trick).
Feel-better berries. Elderberry may shorten flu time by up to 50%---add some extract to a cup of warm water or take capsules according to the instructions on the label.
Chill out. Many types of heating systems dry out air in confined spaces. creating an ideal environment for viruses to spread. crack open the windows for a few hours to help air circulate, or try a humidifier.
Don't let the bed bugs bite. to prevent the virus from breeding, wash bed linens in hot water every few days when you're sick.
