Over the last few weeks, a lot of people have been getting sick on campus. With midterms ending and spring break just a week away, getting sick is the last thing anyone wants. Staying germ-free can be done rather easily by anyone. Here are 5 tips to help you remain healthy over the next few weeks.
1. Wash your hands
Washing your hands frequently is critical to remaining germ free. Throughout the day, you touch so much and you never know who touched it before you. In order to keep the germs away, you have to wash your hands.
2. Make sure you're eating healthy
Eating healthy is another great way to ensure you don't get sick. I will admit that I am the worst about this one. Being in college is hard and sometimes you don't want to make yourself food. It's just easier to pick something up or to heat up a meal.
3. Get enough sleep
Another way of staying healthy is getting enough sleep at night. In college, you're probably not getting as much sleep as you need. I know my sleep schedule has changed a lot since going to college.
4. Take your vitamins
Taking your vitamins is another quick and easy way to stay healthy.
5. Minimize stress
This one is easier said then done especially being in college. While some stress is unavoidable, try to avoid as much unneeded stress as possible.
