Hello Hibiscus Family,
Last month’s health talk, Flu-Proof yourself, was a wonderful engagement. I loved your questions and willingness to share your concerns and personal experiences. With all of the conflicting informations regarding the safety of flu vaccines, you deserve the right to know what best for you and your family. We learned the value of flu symptons and what you can do to stay healthy this season. Being healthy is a lifestyle, which you can work at everyday. Here are the health tips shared during the the workshop. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at maurice@mauircehealthworks.com Enjoy and I look forward to seeing you at the next Hibiscus Day Spa Health Talks.
- Avoid over the counter drugs and antibiotics – Over-the-counter drugs only treat symptons that are actually necessary for your body to fight infections successfully. Drugs do not stop colds and may often worsen symptons if taken. “colds” are casused by the over production of viruses ,so an antibiotic which attacks bacteria will not work.
- Stay Active – Although rest may be important if you are too far gone, staying active helps with blood and lymph ciruculation.
- Flush Facial Tissue – Just because you blew your nose doesn’t mean that the virus disappears. Get rid of used tissues by flushing them.
- Fasting – Some old wisdom says”feed a cold”, however fasting allows your energy to be focused on fighting the disease. Big meals may divert attention, so small meals may work better for some people.
