"𝑷𝒖𝒕 𝒐𝒏 𝒂 𝒔𝒘𝒆𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝒐𝒓 𝒚𝒐𝒖’𝒍𝒍 𝒄𝒂𝒕𝒄𝒉 𝒂 𝒄𝒐𝒍𝒅!" We’ve all heard it, but here is the medical truth:

𝑪𝒐𝒍𝒅 𝒂𝒊𝒓 𝒅𝒐𝒆𝒔𝒏’𝒕 𝒄𝒂𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒇𝒍𝒖 𝒐𝒓 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒎𝒐𝒏 𝒄𝒐𝒍𝒅, viruses do.

While the temperature drop doesn't make you sick directly, it does change our behavior in ways that help germs spread. Here’s why we see more illness in winter:

𝑪𝒍𝒐𝒔𝒆 𝑸𝒖𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒔: We spend more time indoors with the windows shut, making it easier for viruses to jump from person to person.
𝑫𝒓𝒚 𝑨𝒊𝒓: Winter air is dryer, which can dehydrate your nasal passages, making it easier for viruses to take root.

𝑯𝒐𝒘 𝒕𝒐 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒚 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒕𝒉𝒚 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒔𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒐𝒏:

𝑷𝒓𝒊𝒐𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒛𝒆 𝑯𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑯𝒚𝒈𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒆: Regular handwashing is your best defense against lingering viruses.
𝑽𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒆 𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝑺𝒑𝒂𝒄𝒆: Even if it's chilly, crack a window for a few minutes daily to let fresh air circulate and clear out stagnant germs.
𝑩𝒐𝒐𝒔𝒕 𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝑫𝒆𝒇𝒆𝒏𝒔𝒆: Stay hydrated, eat well, and get enough sleep to keep your immune system strong.

𝑭𝒆𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒏𝒊𝒇𝒇𝒍𝒆𝒔? Don't wait for it to get worse. Connect with a licensed doctor on ChatDoc Telehealth for a quick consultation and expert advice from the comfort of your warm home!

Did you know you have the power to naturally boost your mood and energy, right now?

Our brains produce amazing chemicals like serotonin, often called the "feel-good" hormone, and you don't need a prescription to increase it! It's all about simple habits that nourish your mind and body.

Here are 𝒇𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒑𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒄𝒂𝒍 𝒘𝒂𝒚𝒔 to activate your joy and boost your mood today:

𝑮𝒆𝒕 𝒂 𝑮𝒍𝒊𝒎𝒑𝒔𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝑺𝒖𝒏𝒍𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕: Step outside for just 10 minutes. Morning sunlight is especially powerful for regulating your mood and sleep cycle.

𝑯𝒚𝒅𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒆 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝑯𝒂𝒑𝒑𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒔: That afternoon slump? It might be dehydration! Grab a glass of water to boost energy and brain function.

𝑴𝒐𝒗𝒆 𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝑩𝒐𝒅𝒚 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝟓 𝑴𝒊𝒏𝒖𝒕𝒆𝒔: No gym required! A quick walk, some gentle stretching, or even dancing to one song can release end-oforphins (your brain's "feel-good" chemicals).

𝑫𝒐 𝒂 𝑫𝒊𝒈𝒊𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝑫𝒆𝒕𝒐𝒙: Give yourself permission to scroll for 5 minutes less. Use that time to take a few deep breaths or listen to a favorite song instead.

𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒏𝒆𝒄𝒕 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝑵𝒂𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆: Even if it's just looking at a tree outside your window or tending to a houseplant, spending a few moments focusing on nature can significantly reduce stress.
