It is that time of year again. My job offers the flu shot to all employees for free. It is highly recommended unless you have an allergy. Of course, I got my shot. But, there are many ways to prevent you and your family from getting sick this winter season. Here are just a few:

1. With Food

• Yogurt
• Garlic
• Mushrooms
• Fatty Fish

2. Shield Yourself from Germs

• Wash hands often and well
• Don’t share toothpaste tubes

• Zinc

4. Get Plenty of Exercise and Rest
