Welcome to Our Website

This is Dr. Yvonne Cobbs encouraging you to live a healthy lifestyle because your health is your wealth. During cold and flu season, taking simple precautions can make a big difference in keeping yourself and your community healthy.

First, wash your hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Handwashing is one of the easiest and most effective ways to stop germs in their tracks. If soap and water aren’t available, use a hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol to keep your hands clean and protected throughout the day.

Next, focus on supporting your immune system. Boost your health with essential nutrients like vitamins C, D, B12, and zinc, as long as they don’t interfere with your medications. A balanced diet rich in colorful fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains provides your body with the nutrients it needs to fight off illnesses. Staying hydrated is also key—aim for at least eight glasses of water daily to keep your body functioning at its best.

Don’t forget the importance of rest! Your body repairs and strengthens itself during sleep, so try to get 7-8 hours of quality sleep each night. Regular exercise, even a brisk walk or light stretching, not only strengthens your immune system but also helps manage stress, which can weaken your defenses.

If you feel unwell, it’s important to stay home—even if it’s just a slight cough or sniffle. Staying home protects others from potential illness. If you must go out or be around others, wear a mask to help reduce the spread of germs.

We’ve learned a lot from COVID-19, and those precautions still apply. Practice good hygiene, avoid touching your face, and maintain a safe distance from others, especially in crowded spaces.

Finally, consider getting your flu shot if you haven’t already. It’s a simple and effective way to protect yourself and those around you from serious illness during flu season.

Let’s be proactive this season by eating well, staying hydrated, getting enough rest, and being considerate of others. Together, we can keep our church and our community healthy. Remember, your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, so take care of it.

This is Dr. Yvonne Cobbs wishing you health, blessings, and peace. Until next time, stay well and stay safe!
