stop swine flu tips!!!

OK this is going around and we just have to be careful and prepared. So far so good no one I know has had it but it is just a matter of time, or is it?

My husband is having back surgery on October 16th and he had his pre-op appointment. He brought home a piece of paper that he thought I would be interested in. This piece of paper came from ST. Francis Hospital in Tulsa , OK so this info is real and legit!

Here are two easy things you can do to prevent the flu from attacking your family. Now this does not replace the flu shot it just helps.

1.) If your throat starts hurting gargle salt water. The salt water kills the flu virus germs and prevents them from going any further. Gargle everyday if you want, this is such an easy and simple preventative action.

2.) You can also drink a hot beverage, this pushes the germs into your stomach. The flu germs cannot survive in your stomach.

How amazing are these steps? And from a Hospital no less. So the big questions is, why has the news not given this info? I mean how many people could this help? So I am blogging this for you and hoping it gets passed along. Spread it like wild fire. I know us women can do this, I believe in you. Good luck and stay healthy.
God Bless,
