Our Flu Prevention Plan

Seems like everyone is getting sick! So, thought I'd share our plan to stay as healthy as possible this fall and winter.

-wash hands w/ good soap (pref. handmade or all natural, organic) the minute we enter our house
-keep house clean w/ anti-bacterial cloths & essential oil cleaning solution
-kids to bed by 8 at the LATEST, after bath & nightly foot rub w/ Young Living EO's
-diffuse anti-bacterial, anti-viral, healing oils to sanitize air, daily
-limit sugar intake, absolutely no fake or processed sugars
-eat colorful, healthy, whole, local (as much as possible) food every day. no boxed or processed or fast foods. limited white flour, whole grains, brown rice...LOTS of veggies, very little meat (none for me!) or dairy.
-a good (all-natural, w/ plenty vitamin D3!) multi-vitamin every day. I've learned vitamin D is particularly important during winter as lack of this vitamin, which we get from sunlight mostly, contributes to weakened immune system. It is said that Vit D3 is safer, to make sure to get that one. I have Young Living's HERS mutli-vitamin.
-use appropriate EO at earliest sign of symptoms

*EO=essential oils. They are amazing. Here's a link if you want to learn more about them.
