Colds and The Flu are both caused by viruses. The difference between having a cold and The Flu is the type of virus that causes each one. Influenza (The Flu) is caused by the Influenza Virus. More than 200 different viruses can cause colds. The type of virus you get determines the severity and the symptoms.
One of the best ways to combat colds and The Flu is to boost your immune system before the cold and flu season hits full swing. A daily regimen of herbs and vitamins, exercising on a regular basis, eating healthy foods, obtaining adequate sleep, and getting plenty of fresh air are all ways to boost your immune system. If you do contract a cold or The Flu, your best chance of fighting it off (or at least shortening the duration of its course) is with natural supplements.
