How to Avoid Flu, "The Others" style.

Here's some great advice to give to those who are unable to get FLU SHOTS - courtesy of Mombi and the rest of The Others.

Eat right! Make sure you get your daily dose of fruits and veggies.

Take your vitamins and bump up your vitamin C.

Get plenty of exercise, because exercise helps build your immune system. Walk for at least hour a day, go for a swim, take the stairs instead of the elevator, etc.

Wash your hands often. If you can't wash them, keep a bottle of antibacterial stuff around. - Get lots of fresh air. Open windows
whenever possible.

Get plenty of rest.

Try to eliminate as much stress from your life as you can.

OR ...

You can take the doctors office approach. In fact, "The Others" recommend this. Think about it, when you go for a shot, what do they do first? Clean your arm with alcohol. Why? Because alcohol kills germs.

So ...

I walk to the liquor store (exercise), I put extra lime in my Mojitos (fruit), celery in my Bloody Mary (veggies), drink on the bar patio (fresh air), get drunk, tell stupid jokes, and laugh (eliminate stress) and then pass out (rest).

The way I see it, if you keep your alcohol levels up flu germs can't get you!
