Prevention is the key: wash your hands, eat well, take immune boosting supplements, avoid immune supressing agents like sugar and alcohol, rest and do your best to manage stress.

Our pediatrician is VERY concerned that the remainder of our family get flu shots to protect our baby from the flu this winter. My husband and I have never had the flu shot, nor have my two other kiddos (2 and 4) -- but we've also never had a newborn in the winter. We're inclined not to get the shots... thanks for the reading. Reinforces our instinct. I just had my third child (at home) a couple of weeks ago.

I can't believe how many people wrongly swear by flu shots. I've never had a flu shot and I only had the flu once. I've found drinking tea with honey when I start to feel sick prevents getting a full blown cold or flu. It worked very well last year and this past week while my co-workers have been calling off sick, I started to drink honey at the onset of a sore throat and it's working. I also discovered lollipops with echinacea and vitamin C that are perfect for my toddler. She had a runny nose earlier this week and these lollipops made her all better. The only downside is they have corn syrup, but I would rather her have that then tylenol. Thanks for this post. I can’t believe how many people wrongly swear by flu shots.

I read your post about the flu shot. I never knew it contained mercury and formaldehyde! I've never gotten one and I'll be sure not to in the future too! Great information! My solution for a cold or flu is staying in bed for a couple of days with liquids and a good novel! Wow. I read your post about the flu shot. I never knew it contained mercury and formaldehyde!
