It's hard to avoid getting sick this time of year, BUT according to Doctor Oz, there ARE a few things you can try to keep you healthy!

Don't Skimp on Sleep
This is a tough one for me, and I'm sure many others as well.
According to the Huffington post, "A recent study found that if you average less than six hours of sleep a night, you're four times more likely to catch a cold."

Wash Your Hands a Lot!
Germs are EVERYWHERE!! Wash your hands often and use lots of hand sanitizer.

Exercise
Doctor Oz says even a few jumping jacks several times a day can help strengthen your immune system.

Sunlight!
I know, I know, easier said than done in Minnesota, BUT vitamin D is a huge immune system support. Oz recommends 15 minutes of sunlight a day, AND a daily vitamin D supplement.
