Waking up with a scratch in your throat. Halve an hour later you feel body aches starts and you just know the rest of the day wont go well.

A cold or flu starts suddenly, or that is how it feels to us. But actually its a weaken immune system at the time. It could be from little sleep, bad eating, and stress causing it.

Change of season (and temperatures) also tend to wake up flu and cold bugs.

Most of us don't have time to lay in bed for a few days, although the idea sounds promising. But rather look at ways to reduce the time of being sick and getting ourselves (and our immune system) back in 100% function mode.

Strengthen your immune system by means of healthy eating, supplementation, enough sleep, relaxation will go along way to fight of a cold or flu.
