The cold season can be considered open. Damp, cool weather and staying in crowded places create additional stress on the immune system.

Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the body both in the fall and throughout the cold period.

How to do this is reported by Oxu.az, citing an interview with general practitioner Vadim Kochetkov in the publication Kaspiy.

Prevention rules

The doctor reminded that in addition to colds and acute respiratory viral infections, many people experience worsening allergies, bronchitis and other chronic diseases in the fall.

Those at risk include children, patients with weakened immune systems, cancer, heart disease, diabetics, and the elderly.

A few simple tips from a doctor will help you avoid ending up on sick leave.

1. Monitor the lighting in the room.

Low light levels strain your eyes, causing eye muscle fatigue, drowsiness, and even migraines.

At the same time, daylight improves brain function, improves mood, and relieves eye strain and fatigue.

2. Maintain a healthy diet and sleep schedule.

It is important to drink more water, do morning exercises and take a contrast shower.

It is necessary to spend more time outdoors and try to take walks in the morning.

According to him, in the morning the sun's rays give off more energy.

3. Don't refuse vaccination.

For many, vaccination remains an underestimated method of strengthening immunity and preventing seasonal diseases.

The vaccine triggers an immune response in the body and helps to resist known diseases in the future.
