The Gazette
|September 30, 2025
GOOD HYGIENE HABITS, REST AND HYDRATION CAN DO WONDERS FOR YOUR HEALTH AT THIS TIME OF YEAR.
PRIORITY: Make sure you get enough sleep
AS TEMPERATURES start to drop and leaves begin to fall, cold and flu season is just around the corner.
Here are some key tips to help strengthen your immune system and prepare for the chilly months ahead.
Stay hydrated
To avoid getting ill this winter, hydration is key.
"Adequate hydration and rest are your best defences," says Dr Naveed Asif, GP at London General Practice.
"Drink plenty of fluids like water and herbal teas."
Keep up to date with vaccinations
"If you're eligible, book your flu vaccine early through your GP or local pharmacy," advises Dr Mohammed Enayat, GP and founder of London-based longevity clinic HUM2N.
"It's especially important if you're pregnant, over 65, have a long-term health condition, or care for someone vulnerable.
"Also, some people will also be offered a Covid booster alongside the flu jab. If you're invited, it's worth getting both done at the same time."
Stock up on over-the-counter remedies
