#5 Hydrate

Constant sneezing and the need to blow your nose can result in dehydration, leading to headaches and further aggravation of your symptoms.

How much should you drink? Eight cups daily is a good marker, but that’s only a starting point. As always, other factors must be taken into account, such as age, activity, body weight and environment. Keep a glass of fresh water near you while you work, and don’t let your busy schedule get in the way of good hydration. Drinking plenty of water is a very simple way to maintain long term health. It also offers rapid, noticeable results in terms of increased energy and vitality.
