Effective cold and flu prevention is essential to good health. Symptoms of cold and flu include sneezing, coughing, congestion, runny nose, fever, inflamation, aches and pains and, with stomach flu, nausea.

It is important to distinguish between cold and flu preventive measures, cold and flu relief and cold and flu treatment. Cold and flu prevention can range from flu shots to frequently washing your hands. Cold and flu relief can range from Sudafed type products for relief from congestion to chicken soup. Cold and flu treatment can include taking vitamin C, bed rest and drinking water or tea.

Aspirin and ibuprofin are said to provide relief from the fever and aches and pains that can accompany a cold or the flu. A product such as Nyquil claims to allow a cold or flu sufferer to sleep through the night with minimum of wakefulness and discomfort.

Symptoms such as indigestion or heartburn are generally not associated with having a cold or the flu. Having a cold or the flu has not been shown to be directly linked to cancer, heart attack, stroke or HIV Aids. Nor has the common cold or influenza been shown to cause autism, arthritis, diabetes or obesity.
Various strains of influenza include the H1N1 Virus, aka swine flu and bird flu aka avian flu.
