How to avoid the flu...........
Eat right! Make sure you get your daily dose of fruits and veggies.

Take your vitamins and bump up your vitamin "C".

Get plenty of exercise because exercise helps build your immune system.

Walk for at least hour a day, go for a swim, take the stairs instead of
the
elevator, etc.

Wash your hands often. If you can't wash them, keep a bottle of
antibacterial stuff around.

Get lots of fresh air.
Open windows whenever possible.

Get plenty of rest.

Try to eliminate as much stress from your life as you can.
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 alcohol.
Why?
Because alcohol kills germs.
So......
I walk to the liquor store (exercise),
I put lime in my Corona fruit),
celery in my Bloody Mary (veggies),
drink on the bar patio (fresh air),
get drunk, tell jokes, and laugh
(eliminate stress)
and then pass out (rest).

The way I see it,
if you keep your alcohol levels up
flu germs can't get you!!!!
 
During the great flu pandemic in 1918, everyone in my father's family came down with the stuff - all except my grandfather. Thankfully they all survived. However, my grandfather asked the old country doctor who helped them, "Why didn't I catch it?" The doctor said, "Because you chew tobacco. Of all the families I saw with flu, no one who chewed tobacco caught it". Interesting. Tobacco juice must be strong stuff.
