In addition, as colds are caused by viruses that can be spread through coughing and sneezing, or transferred on your hands, there are other ways to help keep you well this winter:
- Try to avoid touching your face, especially your eyes, mouth and nose as these are key entry points for these viruses. You would be amazed at how often you touch your face in a single day without even realising it!
- Wear gloves, especially when you are out and about in communal areas. – they may help protect against cold-causing viruses from everyday objects such as escalator and stair hand rails
- Sleep with the window open as germs and viruses can breed more quickly in warmer temperature. It’s a myth that cold weather causes a cold. Keeping fresh air circulating will help create a healthier sleeping environment.”

Long days looking at computer screens and then rushing out into the hustle and bustle of Christmas crowds with bright and sparkling lights may make your eyes feel tired and irritated, so treat them this Christmas and keep them dazzling. Consider Boots Pharmaceuticals Brightening Eyes Eye Drops (£3.69) which contain natural plant extract to bring back that natural brightness in your eye.
