AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION KEEPS THE GERMS AWAY

Tips to protect your family from colds and the flu

1. An easy way to help prevent your kids and family getting the flu is to give them a flu shot. The flu shot can help reduce an average kid's chances of catching the flu by up to 80%.
2. Wash your hands frequently to keep germs to a minimum. Using a good anti-bacterial soap will help stop the spread of colds and flu germs around your home.
3. Get lots of fresh air - exercise such as family walks and playing outside will help lower the risk of catching colds and the flu.
4. Eat a well balanced diet including plenty of high protein foods, vegetables and fruits.
5. Use LYSOL® Disinfectant Spray on a daily basis to kill colds and the flu virus.

Tips to speed up the recovery process if you catch a cold or the flu

1. Keep hydrated - drinking water helps to flush out your system and to stop the nose and throat from drying out.
2. Use LYSOL® Disinfectant Spray to stop the germs spreading to the rest of the family. Using it on commonly touched items - door knobs, telephones, TV remotes, toilet handles - frequently will help reduce the chances of others getting sick.
3. Clean and disinfect countertops and bathroom areas with LYSOL® Disinfecting Wipes. LYSOL® wipes are more effective at killing germs than using an everyday sponge and hot water to clean and keep germs at bay.
4. Sleep, sleep, sleep - ensure you and your family get plenty of rest to help the recovery process.
