Has anyone noticed an early flu season?
I spent the last week in the depths of the flu...glad I made it through alive ..
I have my dr or community health nurse literally knocking on my door to ensure I get my flu shot but is nice knowing I is cared about no flu here yet but we don't even have snow yet
apparently I was mistaken; i am now fighting phase 2.
cough cough cough cough cough cough cough....x1000
its a good thing no can see me
I try to pick up the chewable vitamin C tablets and carry them in my car. I notice the cough more when I am driving. I have started taking the tablets just before large meetings with lots of exposure - don't know if it will help but I enjoy the chewable tablets so...
I should invest in the zinc tablets and keep them in the car too. Maybe the next generation of cars will have a pill tablet in addition to the drink holder for oldies but goodies like me.
I think avoiding colds and flu is all about having a healthy diet and eating plenty of fruit and vegetables. I also think that taking a daily probiotic is really important for boosting the immune system and fighting off any looming infections. You can get probiotic in any Activia yogurts which makes it a tasty way to incorporate it into your diet. I swear by a balanced, healthy, home made diet, complimented by a varied fitness routine. A positive frame of mind helps keep the bugs at bay too!
I just got over the flu. It seems I get it every November. I do eat healthy and exercise but I guess if you're going to get it you will.
just this spring I was hospitalized, and due to my diagnosis I can't have the flu shot, so yeah, I need to be extra careful.

How concerned should we be about this year's flu season?Reports show an above average flu season here in the us. How concerned do you think we should be? Will this prove like the swine flu epidemic of 2009 and lead to a vicious early flu season but then fade more quickly than expected?
