Fall Health Tips (2)

This Fall season follow these tips to help you and yours stay in top health and be your best during the seasonal and all year long:

Exercise - Exercise is important all through the year, but can help you get in shape(健康) for the winter months. If you exercise by walking outdoors, it may be time to locate other places you can walk that are protected from harsh winter weather. Indoor shopping malls are great places to walk and often have walkers clubs that offer discounts. With the days getting colder, take a few extra minutes to warm up your body and stretch [stretʃ] (伸展，拉伸) your muscles(肌肉) before you exercise. Also wear a handkerchief around your nose and mouth if it's really cold to warm up the air before it enters your lungs.

Cold and Flu - Cover your face when you sneeze or cough, and wash your hands often to help stop the spread（传播） of the season's cold and flu germs（流感病毒）. Get a flu shot if you are 65 or older; or if you have a chronic disease of the heart, lungs or kidneys.
