SinuCleanse- Safe and Immediate Sinus Relief Naturally

Seven Steps For Stopping The Sniffles

Nasal wash offers relief for America’s 70 million sinus sufferers

NAPS – This year, the U.S. has suffered the worst flu season in recent history. Add that to the one to three colds the average American adult gets each year, the six to eight colds children average annually as well as the blooming of spring allergies and you’re talking about a significant number of stuffy noses. These illnesses result in nearly 23 million days of absence for work and 26 million days of missed school every year in the United States, making it all the more important to limit the number of days we’re home sick. So, how do you keep the sniffles at bay and how can you minimize the flu or a cold?

There are a number of home remedies that adults and children can use to help ward off germs and stay healthy throughout the year.

Drink plenty of fluids. Drinking water or juice prevents dehydration, keeps your throat moist and helps break up congestion. Drink 8-10 8 oz. glasses of water each day and avoid cola, coffee and other caffeinated drinks because it may cause dehydration.
Use a neti pot. The teapot shaped device is a mainstay of ancient yoga tradition, and is designed to cleanse the nose and nasal passages with warm saline. There are a number of neti pots available, including SinuCleanse, which is available at most drug stores and is made of unbreakable, antimicrobial plastic. Nasal washing helps break up congestion while also removing virus particles and bacteria from your nose. It’s safe for children and adults, including pregnant and nursing mothers.
Drink hot liquids. Hot liquids relieve nasal congestion, prevent dehydration and soothe the uncomfortably inflamed membranes that line your nose and throat.
Sleep with an extra pillow. Elevating your head helps relieve congested nasal passages and the pressure commonly felt in the sinuses.
Blow your nose. It’s important to blow your nose regularly when you have the flu or a cold, rather than sniffling mucus back into your head. Blowing gently into a tissue helps remove germs from your nasal passages. Also be sure to throw the tissues away immediately.
Wash your hands. Cold and flu germs live for up to 72 hours, making thorough hand-washing critical.
Sneeze into your sl

eeve. Sneezing into your hand means you’ll infect the next thing you touch; sneezing into your sleeve helps lessen the chances you’ll spread the germs.
