Tips for a healthy winter
Winter is a time when our bodies are particularly exposed to health risks such as colds, flu and other respiratory infections. As well as using Phytorub, it’s crucial to adopt healthy lifestyle habits to boost our immunity and stay healthy during these cold months. Here are some key tips:
1. A balanced diet
A balanced diet is fundamental to boosting the immune system. In winter, choose foods rich in vitamins C and D, zinc and antioxidants to help fight infection.
- Fruit and vegetables: Eat a variety of fresh fruit and vegetables. Citrus fruits, kiwi fruit, peppers and spinach are excellent sources of vitamin C.
- Protein: Protein is essential for building and repairing body tissue. Include lean meats, legumes and nuts in your diet.
- Wholegrain cereals: Wholegrain cereals such as quinoa, oats and brown rice provide the energy you need to stay active through the winter.
- Hydration: Drinking enough water is crucial, even in winter. Hydration helps maintain the functionality of the mucous membranes, a natural barrier against viruses.
2. Sufficient hydration
Winter can often lead to insidious dehydration, as we tend to drink less water.
- Water and herbal teas: Drink water and herbal teas regularly. Warm herbal teas are also good for warming the body and soothing the throat.
- Avoid alcoholic and caffeinated drinks: These can lead to dehydration. Moderate your consumption of coffee, tea and alcohol.
3. Regular physical activity
Regular exercise is a cornerstone of a healthy winter. It stimulates blood circulation, boosts the immune system and improves your mood.
- Indoor exercise: If the weather doesn’t permit outdoor activities, opt for yoga, gymnastics or strength training at home.
- Brisk walking: A daily brisk walk can be extremely beneficial. It improves blood circulation and increases lung capacity.
- Stretching and relaxation: Incorporate stretching and relaxation exercises to reduce stress, a factor that can weaken the immune system.
Studies on managing colds
When it comes to managing the common cold, various studies and publications offer an interesting insight into effective methods and treatments. Here is a summary of some of these studies:
The use of antihistamines :
- A Cochrane review examined the effectiveness of antihistamines in the treatment of the common cold. It was found that these drugs have a limited beneficial effect in the short term (first and second day of treatment) on the severity of overall symptoms, but not in the medium or long term. They have no clinically significant effect on nasal obstruction, rhinorrhoea or sneezing. Side effects, which were more frequent with sedative antihistamines, were not statistically significant. It is important to note that there is no evidence of their efficacy in children.
Heated and humidified air:
- Another Cochrane review assessed the effects of inhaling heated water vapour in the treatment of the common cold. The analysis did not establish with certainty that heated and humidified air provides symptomatic relief for the common cold. None of the studies showed any exacerbation of clinical symptom scores. However, the results concerning viral excretion and nasal resistance were contradictory. The data suggest significant heterogeneity in the effects of heated and humidified air on the different endpoints, indicating low data quality. Minor adverse effects such as nasal discomfort or irritation were reported in some studies.
These studies indicate the importance of careful selection of treatment methods and evaluation of their efficacy based on scientific evidence.
