Tips to Avoid Flu, Colds and Sinus Infection This Winter

For me the Christmas holidays used to mean coming down with a sinus infection almost every year, regardless of how hard I tried to prevent that from happening. For about the past ten years, however, I have used the following tips and avoided sinus infections almost completely. The best time to start is before you feel that sore and scratchy throat. It takes a little discipline at first, but avoiding all that pain and misery is worth it.

Using Natural Nasal Sprays To Relieve Common Ailments

Allergies and colds can really take a toll on the nose and throat. Stuffy noses make it difficult to carry out everyday activities. Using natural nasal sprays to wash away allergens and reduce swelling and inflammation will also thin out mucus that is too thick. Avoid using a spray that contains a medication, or there may be harmful side effects. Removing the dust and allergens from the upper respiratory system will open up the sinuses. It will become much easier to breathe, eat, talk, and sleep.
