bruco Before the temperatures drop, and now that we are in full season, preparing for a major race, a break forced by a bad cold or flu can wipe out all our preparation . It is therefore necessary to take precautions against the viruses that cause the discomfort. Follow a few tips to fight colds and probably will prevent:
- always Breathing through the nose. The direct access of pathogens into your body through the mouth and nose. Start by not putting the things easy for your enemies breathing properly, always taking the air through the nose to use your natural filter, heating the air before it reaches the lungs and fight against microorganisms through AIG immunoglobulins
- nose clean. Wash your nose if you sneeze, sneeze first suspicious, do not forget to go to the bathroom and wash your nose ... is also very important to keep our hands clean in general. Do not wait for symptoms contagion ... hygiene care in general.
- Maintain adequate food. Try to strengthen its defenses in general and especially at the first signs: learn to feel more minimal symptoms with cold starting. If successful you might even be able to win some battles. Take a warm glass of milk with honey or orange juice with honey (you can add both a splash of cognac, but experts advise muchgo any alcoholic beverage) every two or three hours until the symptoms may disappear ....
- Hot Feet: well equipped to go down there .... Do not skimp on media: please double socks if needed. Inside out, do not let it get cold feet. Although the virus penetrates the mucous membranes of the nose and eyes and feet, experts say have no importance, the fact is that many people, when we get cold feet, is an advance of a cold almost certain. So even without clear cause and effect of why take the risk? Besides having cold feet is annoying. Pógase double socks if necessary.
- Follow a good diet: Good eating habits are essential. Do not miss many hours without taking anything. Very good breakfast in the morning. Its diet eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, especially those rich in vitamin C. Medical research are often contradictory. Recent scientific studies (say that serious) debunk the "topic" of orange juice. They claim that vitamin C and cold have no link. Well, perhaps, in any case, follow a good diet.
- Drink plenty of fluids, plenty of water, juices, teas ... Do not miss a morning or an afternoon without eating this type of liquid. Of all the remedies is what generates the most consensus to the effect that the mucus more liquid and therefore easier to expel. Keep well hydrated mucous is like giving good food to the soldiers on the firing line. Drink fluids also makes the white blood cell activity increases. Choose preferably water, at least a couple of liters per day and combined juices but better 50% water to reduce the concentration of sugar.
- Get a humid environment: it seems if we over-dry nasal mucosa is more easily to access the virus. Remember that there are great humidifiers. Like you need to take water to keep hydrated mucous membranes also have to "breathe water" to prevent drying out easily. Heating or dry climates are low in humidity and a humidifier should be used to compensate for this lack of water. If you put the humidifier water eucalyptus, rosemary or lavender will be enhancing the protective action of moisture to avoid infections.
- Exercise. Exercise strengthens the immune system. Of course, every time you spend in intensity or volume you're getting the opposite effect will wear you have fewer white blood cells and antibodies.
- takes a couple of yogurts a day. The bacteria that ferment milk into yogurt making are perfect for maintaining the health of your digestive system, to reinforce your bacterial flora. Take one or two per day, best probiotics or natural.

- Avoid sudden temperature changes. Bundle up when you go out and come from areas with a high heat.
- not treat yourself, consult your doctor if you choose to take medication. Do not use drugs that have been followed in previous treatments.
- break if you fell ill with a cold. Help your defenses, resting ... Avoid stress. You can also "shorten" the cold if it helps positively to their defenses: Take
oranges, lemons, kiwis ... Foods rich in vitamin C. Do not exceed 20 mg. / Day. - Gargling and nasal cleansing with salt water. Put a teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water and gargle for a minute. Try to carefully clean your nasal passages with salt water that inhaling ... improve nasal congestion.
- Eat chicken soup. Although there is no evidence that chicken soup can help cure a cold, most doctors agree that it can have positive effects.
- not touch your eyes or nose (especially if hands are not washed)
- Take some zinc, although some say that AUI will have no effect. Others, however, indicate that nasal spray and tablet of a zinc complex vitamins help fight colds. Although I agreed to be careful because too much zinc can cause a defect in iron.
