With summer behind us, it won't be long until cold and flu season
and you need to know how to avoid these viruses.

ND PhD:
In order to avoid catching viruses we have to be scrupulously
clean.
Dr. William Wong,
author of the book 10
Natural Treatments You Haven't Heard of Until Now…
When we come
in from an office or a public environment, a mall, strap hanging
off of a subway, hanging on to a pole on a bus - we have to
wash our hands and wash them up to our forearms and make sure
that we wash our hands for at least 15-30 seconds. It's not
so much the soap that removes any bugs and debris we may be
carrying, it's the physical action of abrasion. If you can,
use a nailbrush to get around the hands and around the skin;
make believe you are a surgeon.
Because these
viruses get on your hands and you typically put them into your
own body.
I'll give you
an example: you're riding in an airplane - someone behind you
sneezes and all of that micro-fine material latches onto your
hair and you run your fingers through your hair, you touch your
nose, you touch your eyes, you touch your mouth, you touch any
orifice, the virus crawls into your body and "bang"
you're infected.
Interestingly
once a virus gets into your body, it never leaves. And viruses
are very tiny.
A virus is a
piece of genetic material that is so tiny that if you dropped
the virus onto an unglazed piece of china, it would likely go
through the pores in that china and come out the other side.
