- Eat healthy foods, including lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, and make sure you get an adequate amount of lean protein (preferably fish, chicken, eggs or tofu). Fruit and vegetables are loaded with antioxidants that will keep your immune system strong and well.
- Eat lots of uncooked garlic, or consider taking a garlic supplement. Raw garlic has natural antiviral and antibiotic activity.
- Get enough sleep—at least seven hours a night. During sleep, the immune system restores itself to help you stay well.
- Make sure you exercise. A brisk walk as often as possible will help you keep strong and fit. • Stay away from people with colds.
- Wash your hands frequently. Cold germs can be found on door handles, phones, stair rails, faucets, and just about every hard surface you can think of. Once on your hands, they are easily transferred to the mucous membranes of your nose and mouth.
Needed Protection
Both clinical studies and anecdotal evidence point towards the efficacy of COLD-fX® - a supplement designed to help you fight winter ills. In a trial authorized by Health Canada, 279 healthy adults aged 18 to 65, with a history of at least two upper respiratory infections (colds) in the previous year were given COLD-fX® for four months. The supplement was shown to reduce the average number and frequency of upper respiratory infections by 26 percent.
While clinical trials and studies help support claims for COLD-fX®, the real story lies with the thousands of people who simply “wouldn’t be without it.” Repeat sales of COLD-fX® show that, for many Canadians, this formulation is a must during cold and flu season.
Cold-fX® is a patented, highly purified natural product (oligosaccharides and polysaccharides) derived from the roots of North American ginseng. The product may be taken preventively on a long-term basis (two capsules a day) or at the onset of cold symptoms. Each capsule of this non-drowsy formula is standardized to provide consistency of dosage.
Cold-fX® may be used by adults and children of 12 years or older.
