Stay Healthy This Winter With Healthy Habits

There are a just a few simple things to remember in order to stay healthy during the winter:

Avoid close contact with people who are sick.

Stay home when you are sick; if you are not able to stay home because your employer needs a doctor's excuse then make sure you take some type of disinfectant. Be courteous to others so they will not get sick.

Cover your mouth and nose when sneezing; it is best to actually use your arm rather than your hand. You probably will not touch as many things with your arm as you do your hands.

Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.

Most of all wash your hands often especially when you have been around someone who is sick. If you go shopping and push a cart
for your items; do not eat anything until you have washed your
hands or used a sanitizer. Think about how many other people who have pushed the same cart.
