The doctor told about the preparation of the body for winter

The cold season is hard to bear for those suffering from respiratory diseases, Sergei Cheremushkin, chief freelance specialist in therapy and general medical practice of the network of clinics "Russian Railways Medicine", told "Izvestia".

In addition, in the cold season, the number of colds increases, he added. He called regular dynamic exercise in the fresh air and a rational diet the key to good health at this time.

"The body is in a state of stress, trying to cope with both low temperatures and changes between home and the street, so it is very important to fill the diet with the right and healthy foods," the doctor said.

He recommended eating fruits and vegetables, as well as oily fish, which contains unsaturated fatty acids. The doctor also advised to pay attention to grain products and vegetable oils.

"Moisturizing the air reduces the risk of infection with ARVI and other colds, so it is better to get a humidifier, and if there is no such opportunity, any wet cloth will do," - added Sergei Cheremushkin.

Sleep, according to the doctor, it is desirable to sleep with the window ajar. The air temperature in the room should be no higher than 20 degrees.
