Health
Welcome to Snotsville Hope you’ve got some annual leave left, we’re heading in to Snot Season…
C
hances are that at least one member of your family (and almost certainly you) are going to get ill over the next seven months, but that doesn’t mean there is nothing you can do to fight it. We’ve put together a helpful list of some things you can do to stay well this autumn and winter.
Practice good hygiene
Sneeze and cough in to your elbow rather than your hands, like you’re doing a dab, wash hands regularly and don’t leave those snotty tissues lying around – it’s disgusting.
Eat well
Make sure you eat lots of vitamin-packed fruit and veg and drink plenty of water.
Sleep well
Sleep gives the body a chance to recoup and recharge and is important in keeping healthy – this includes naps.

Get some exercise
As well as giving you some ‘wiggle room’ in the run up to Christmas, physical activity can support your immune system. Practicing mindfulness or meditation or any other practices that counteract the effects of stress on your body can help keep you healthy. 8|

Take Vitamin D
It’s cheaper than a week in the south of France and also a more reliable way of getting some vitamin D in to your system.
