Prepare Your Cold and Flu Survival Kit


!±8± Prepare Your Cold and Flu Survival Kit

Facial Tissues with Moisturizer

Avoid the feeling of sandpaper under your nose by keeping a box of tissues with aloe or moisturizer on hand. If you're already feeling the under nose burn, try using salve or lip balm - just be sure to use a cotton swab when applying (and don't double dip!) so you don't spread germs.

Disposable Toothbrushes

The second you start feeling a cold coming on - toss your toothbrush! Stick to the one-time use disposable brushes and use them until a few days after you feel better, then switch to a brand new brush.

Medicine

Having a few varieties of cold and flu medicine on hand is always a good idea, chewable tablets for your purse or backpack, hot beverages for relaxing and soothing a sore throat, and a children's specific formula make our list of survival kit musts.

A Working Thermometer

Invest in a good quality thermometer to keep tabs on the severity of your fever. Talk to your pharmacist about which type and brand is right for your family.

Feel Better Foods - Natural Popsicles, Chicken Soup and Honey

The next time you make chicken soup, make a bit extra and keep it in the freezer. Keep a box of popsicles on hand to help kids hydrate (it's ok - us adults can have them too!). Add honey to warm milk or herbal tea.

Natural, Antibacterial Cleansers & Hand Sanitizers

Chances are you already have this on hand, but cleaning your living space takes even more priority when you have a cold or the flu. Natural cleansers & hand sanitizer are great to have extras of...one for the car, the office and home!
