How To Avoid The Flu

[Mr.Ladyfish]

Due to the shortage of vaccine this year I've come up with my own method to avoid the flu bug:<br /><br />- Eat right! Make sure you get your daily dose of fruits and veggies.<br /><br />- Take your vitamins and bump up your vitamin c.<br /><br />- Get plenty of exercise because exercise helps build your immune system.<br /><br />- Walk for at least hour a day, go for a swim, take the stairs instead of the elevator, etc.<br /><br />- Wash your hands often. If you can't wash them, keep a bottle of antibacterial stuff around.<br /><br />- Get lots of fresh air. Open windows whenever possible.<br /><br />- Get plenty of rest.<br /><br />- Try to eliminate as much stress from your life as you can.<br /><br /> OR ... You can take the doctors office approach. Think about it, when you go for a shot, what do they do first? Clean your arm with<br />alcohol. Why? Because alcohol kills germs.<br /><br />So......walk to the liquor store (exercise), put lime in your Corona (fruit), celery in your Bloody Mary (veggies), drink on the bar patio<br />(fresh air), get drunk, tell jokes, and laugh (eliminate stress) and then pass out (rest). <br /><br />The way I see it, if you keep your alcohol levels up flu germs can't get<br />you!!!!

LOL <br /><br />I worked with an Irishman for a few years. Towards the end of the work day he would always say... "me throat....me throat!" He visited Dr. Guinness everyday after work!
