]]>Sadly, the dreaded cold virus can strike at any time of the year. If you find yourself dealing with the sniffles this summer, here’s what you can do to help.
It’s a well-known thing to stay hydrated during the summer, but when you’re sick it’s even more important. Drink plenty of fluids like water, herbal tea, and clear broths, to stay hydrated and help thin out mucus secretions. You can even stick a colorful umbrella in it if it’ll make you feel a little better.
Using saline nasal sprays can help relieve the nasty congestion that makes your head feel like a waste paper basket that is just too full. The sprays also moisturize your nasal passages, which should help with ACs that dry out the air.
Yes, we know, your friends are going to the beach and you want to join them. We get it. But resting is the best thing you can do for your body when it isn’t at its best. Take a couple of days to relax at home and recover. The beach will still be there once you’re all better.

Ever heard the saying, “cold hands, warm heart”? It may be a cute way for those with icy extremities to dismiss the chill, but cold hands can be a symptom of poor blood circulation. It’s best to have a doctor check whether your arteries are functioning optimally and they can advise on the best way forward.
Another blood-related reason for being constantly cold is anemia. Caused by a lack of iron, the condition can result in fewer red blood cells or ones that cannot sufficiently transport oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your body. Stock up on iron-rich foods like leafy greens, lentils, and red meat.

A hot bath and shower are known for helping you to de-stress after a long day of work, and the steam can also help your cold and cough. It can open up your sinuses and dilute the mucus buildup, responsible for your cough.

]]>Make sure you’re following the CDC social distancing guidelines and that you’re wearing a mask when in public places. You should also be regularly disinfecting commonly-touched surfaces with cleaning sprays and wipes. Also, wash your hands frequently.
In addition to getting enough sleep, staying active, drinking fluids, and eating healthily, supplements can keep your immune system healthy. Look for ones that contain black elderberry, vitamin C, echinacea, and zinc.
You should always be in the know when it comes to your health, so having a thermometer at home is a must. Another monitoring device worth looking in to is a pulse oximeter, which measures the level of oxygen in your blood.
While home remedies won’t cure viruses, over-the-counter products like fever reducers, antihistamines, decongestants, and cough medicines can make the symptoms more managable.
