3 Tips for Staying Healthy this Winter


When the days get shorter and the temperature drops, it can get hard to stay healthy. With holiday-related binge eating and seasonal sicknesses, the winter presents many obstacles for those looking to stay fit. This, however, doesn’t mean you can’t be active while you count down the days until spring. Below are some tips to help you stay fit and healthy this winter.

Keep Hygiene in Mind Hygiene is one of those things many people tend to take for granted. Sure, lots of people brush their teeth regularly and wash their hands after using the bathroom, but sometimes that’s just not enough if you want to avoid getting sick. In addition to the everyday hygiene steps you already take, there are a couple of other things you can do to help yourself stay healthy during the winter. One of the most important things you can do to stay healthy this winter is make sure your flu shot is current. It’s also important to clean your work space with disinfectant wipes periodically. These steps will help protect you from the various bacteria that plague the winter months.

Add Herbal Tea to Your Daily Diet Admittedly, this is not a strictly winter-related tip. You can add tea to your diet at any point during the year and it’s a great idea. Not only is tea a delightful drink (with literally thousands of flavors), but it’s also a source of many vitamins and nutrients that our bodies crave and need. Tea is a wonderful addition to any person’s diet, especially during the winter months, because it offers a nice warm and soothing drink without all of the calories of hot chocolate or coffee.

Exercise Regularly While the correlation between working out and not getting sick is not an immediately obvious one, it’s one of the key factors in avoiding winter sickness. Studies have shown that people who exercise regularly have strong immune systems. This is because exercise offers many benefits that fortify the body against sickness. Chief among these benefits is a boost in the cells assigned to target harmful bacteria. So, regular exercise, while helping you stay fit, also keeps you from getting sick during those long, cold winter months. While getting sick is simply a part of life, it doesn’t have to be a frequent one. With these few easy tips, you will have better chances of avoiding sickness this winter. By keeping your person and space clean, drinking tea, and keeping up the exercise, you can help yourself pass on those dreaded days of coughing and sneezing.
