Now that we're heading into a flu season...I was wondering if members have such remedies to help ward (keep away) off the common flu?
 
I always get black pea(italian) tea from starbuck or walmart. It by brewed tea...... it helps me alot. Med or pills didnt help very much cuz slow effect. I like HERB tea much better same thing with PMS
 
Ive been sick with flu all week this week and feeling better now..yuck!

I use Sudafed Sinus and Cold..

Sudafed Sinus No good :(
 
I (and ^Angel^ too) been having a bout with the flu since last week...I'll drink plenty of orange juice, taking aspirins and running a vaporizer at night and medicine for the o' nasty coughs which don't really help me at all...^Angel^ got this medicine prescribed by a doctor which seem to help her some, not some remedy off the pharmacy shelves....I think I'm gonna start drinking more 'hot' herbal tea....and hopefully we'll get over this nasty case of the flu before the weekend starts!

I don't take the flu shots anymore because I end up throwing up alot..so I don't think the flu shots are really helping me since theyre making me sick...
 
Prevention is the best thing. Lots of hand washing after using the restroom or shaking hands, and always before eating. Don't touch your eyes, nose or mouth with unwashed hands. Try to avoid people who have the flu.

I know that those rules are hard to follow for children. That's why flu spreads quickly at schools.

There is a shortage of flu vaccine this year, so most places are limiting the shots. Only babies, old folks, people with weak immune systems, etc., will be able to get the shots. In previous years, I always got the shot, and I never caught the flu. This year, I probably won't get the shot because other people need it more than me.
 
At the slightest sign of any symptoms, take some medicine quickly. It helps the medicine fight better while it's weak. It's like war. You've got an arm of 1,000 men. You see 200 enemy soldiers approaching and lining up on the other side. Do you sit there and wait? Nah, go for it... get them before they grow. If you down, they could expand to 500, then 800, then 1,000... until they have 2,000 or 5,000! Then you're gonna have a hard time getting rid of them!
