β FAQ: What Are the Top Flu Prevention Tips?
Flu season can be tougher for older adults, so taking simple preventative steps helps protect health and keep you feeling your best. Getting vaccinated each year is one of the most effective ways to reduce your risk and lessen severity if you do get sick. Regular hand hygiene, including washing with soap and using sanitizer, helps stop germs from spreading, and avoiding touching your face lowers infection risk.
Eating a balanced, nutrient-rich diet supports your immune system, while quality sleep helps your body stay resilient and recover. Gentle, regular movement boosts circulation and overall wellbeing, and keeping distance from those who are unwell reduces exposure and supports a healthier environment for everyone.
