Now that Florida, and especially some of its major cities, is 
experiencing the peak of the cold and flu season, here are a few tips on 
ways to try to avoid colds and the flu and ways to treat the symptoms if 
you get a cold or the flu:


--  Drink plenty of fluids, especially warm ones, which ease stuffiness 
better than cold beverages;

--  Wash your hands frequently with warm water and disinfecting soap;

--  High levels of stress nearly double your chances of catching a cold 
because stress lowers your resistance to viral infection.  Regular 
exercise and adequate rest can help you combat the effects of stress.

--  Many over-the-counter medicines also treat cold symptoms and bring 
relief.
