Hey you all Flu Season is approaching I just wanted to share some tips.... Number one thing is to have good hand hygien, wash your hands often and when washing your hands point you finger tips down so all the germs and debry flow and go down the drain.... Also change you tooth brush often as well, as they carry bacteria if not properly cleaned..... and last but certainly not least make sure you get your flu shot this fall, it really protects agains the flu. Ive takin the flu shot for the last couple years and I have notice that I have not gotten as sick as I normally do....

How a flu shot can save you life!!!!
Researchers have found that people with heart disease who got flu shots had a lower risk for heart attack or dying from a heart attack than those who did not get vaccinated.
The flu increases the chances of heart attack, stroke, and other cardiovascular problems. About one-third of heart attacks preceded by upper respiratory infections like the flu. One possible explanation is that inflammation , one of the body's response to the flu changes blood chemistry in ways that speed up the progress of heart disease.
Flu shots are recommended for all adults over 50, children between 6 monthes and 5 years, pregnant wemon, or wemon who could become pregnant during the flu season; and anyone with chronic health conditions.
Be Healthy and Be Blessed during the Flu season. LOve jessica
