help prevent
the coughs colds and flu this winter. They are simple,
cost nothing, and will pay off. I hope you
enjoy reading

DR WRIGHTS
TEN POINT
PLAN TO AVOID
THE FLU
|
1. Keep Warm, keep dry and keep out of drafts.
2. Secure 6-8 hours sleep every hight. You cannot “bank” sleep.
3. Eat three sensible low fat, high fibre meals a day.
4. Do not smoke and avoid smokers nearby.
5. Go easy on the grog, for this reduces resistance to germs.
6. Take 2,500 mg of vitamin C a day, also a multi vitamin/mineral
tablet or capsule each day. Probably garlic, horseradish,
Echinacea each day.
7. Drink 1500 – 2000 mL or even more if perspiring
is essential. Have the Fluvax injection now.
8. If drenched, go back home and change into dry gear (or
keep some dry things including shoes at work).
9. Don’t loiter on cold windy streets, specially after
sundown.
10. Wrap up well if cold outside, specially if coming from
an air conditioned house or building.
Come and visit Vimiera Village some time. Our current big
venture are the Assisted Living Apartments. Here meals are
provided, laundry carried out, and general cleaning attended
to. It is great for those finding these duties a bit hard.
Entry cost is relatively modest, and only a proportion of
the aged pension is needed to fund the weekly needs.
