Nutrition and Weight Loss Ideas

Before we get into today’s article about the common cold and how to deal with it, I’d like leave this short video before the article begins. If you’ve already seen it, you can skip on down to the article. But, if you’re new to this blog, (or if you just want to see it again)I highly recommend that you take the few minutes to watch it. If you’ve ever wanted to find out why your life is the way it is — and what you can do to make it a lot better, then you need to see this film. You can add so much to your overall wellness by including this in your life.

And yes, another positive thing is “The Secret”. Learn what this is all about and you can make big improvements in your health and nutrition goals, as well as in a multitude of other life goals.

You can get your own copy of the DVD “The Secret”, by joining the Spiritual Cinema Circle (see the video and link below) — they have it available for all their members. You can order the DVD from them right along with the February, 2007 membership. Here’s that video again — just click the “Play” button — and then click the link under the video to get your own membership.

Thanks for watching the video. Now, let’s talk a little about how to fight the common cold…

It won’t be long before winter is on the way out, but you may still get hit with a cold. If you’re coughing and sneezing, experiencing a stuffy or runny nose, and a sore throat, chances are you’ve contracted one of the 200-plus viruses that cause the common cold. It seems like everyone gets a cold from time to time and, unfortunately, there is no magic cure.

One of the most simple and effective ways to prevent getting a cold is
regular hand washing. You really need to get into this habit - especially if you’ve been in contact with someone who is coughing or sneezing, or if you’ve handled objects like a shopping cart or a hand rail. If soap and water aren’t available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer. If you do get a cold, it will usually clear up in seven to 10 days. In the meantime, you can take steps to manage your symptoms and make life a little more bearable.

Here are a few tips:

* Drink plenty of fluids. Water is the obvious choice, but other sugar-free beverages — and even a clear consommé or broth — will keep you hydrated, too. In addition, hot herbal tea may soothe a sore throat.

* Choose a medication in pill or sugar-free liquid form. Pills do not contain a significant amount of added sugars, and sugar-free cough drops or cough syrup are available at most pharmacies. These products are commonly made for diabetics; if you can’t find them, ask your pharmacist where they’re stocked. (Keep in mind that they may contain sugar alcohols, which can cause gastro-intestinal distress in some people.) Also remember that antibiotics are not effective against the common cold — or other viruses — so don’t get folled into spending extra money for them.

* Get plenty of rest. Allowing your body proper time to rest — seven to nine hours per night for most adults — and even more for kids — will help ensure a speedy recovery. And, unless your doctor says otherwise (or if you have a fever), if you’re feeling up to engaging in your usual exercise routine, there is no medical reason to skip it.
