Arm yourself against cold and flu viruses

With shelves stacked full of remedies offering relief to cold and flu symptoms, why not tackle viruses before they infect you and beat germs at their source?

When people sneeze cold and flu viruses are expelled and spread to the surrounding surfaces where they survive for hours and be easily passed on to the hands of another person allowing germs to spread very rapidly. A new survey of 3,000 people conducted by hygiene and sterilising experts, Milton, has revealed alarming results.

In Britain 1 in 10 people do not wash their hands after going to the toilet making the spreading of germs rife! The grubby tale continues with a massive 69% of people not washing their hands before eating and another 63% not cleansing their hands after using public transport making the transfer of infected germs inevitable.
