Well, since 80% of all infections are spread through direct contact, I'd suggest that you get in the habit of washing your hands frequently and well.  Other than that, maintain a healthy weight through a good diet and exercise; stay away from behaviors clearly linked to increased risk (like smoking), etc.

Wash your hands always and if you know somebody around you has a cold make sure you stay away from them.\nEspecialy at work make sure you don't touch your eyes ears nose or mouth if you have been near or touched door handles, pens, keyboards etc when sick people are in work.\n\nThis works for me, I used to get colds and flu every 2 - 3 months then I started bieng more careful and I had my first cold in 3 years  just 2 weeks ago.\n\nVitamins are not the answer, I eat fruit maybe once a month and I pretty much live off microwave meals, toast, biscuits and takeaways.\n\nOh and don't take drugs, these make it very easy to get a cold in the weeks after taking them.

WASH YOUR HANDS CONSTANTLY!!! Like when you come back from like the supermarket or someplace like that. Don't touch handles on like bathrooms (wear gloves if nesassary). These are some of the most highly places for getting sicknesses. Supermarket shopping carts are the most germ ridden things ever. Be careful and stay clean.:)

If you are going by plane, take that "Airborne" supplement that was made by the teacher.  They say it is great for staving off germs in closed places like airplanes, classrooms, etc.\n\nThey possible diseases are too numerous to list.

If you want to live a healthy life eat food that is more on fiber, more fruits and vegetables, more on fish and avoid fatty foods and moderate intake of carbohydrates. Drink 8 glasses or more of water and also a lot of fruit juice. With regard to vitamins you must take multivitamins and vitamin C daily to prevent you from stress and viruses.

Worry about the drunk in the other lane.\nWorry about washing your hands during cold & flu season.\nWorry about how much trans fat your eating.\nWorry about leaving our kids a world where Christians and Muslims can't get along.\nBut don't worry about the increased chance of an infection from a filled (or unfilled tooth). Get a good dentist, get second opinions on major work, and if you must worry, worry about one of the first four items.

The best way to prevent infectious diseases or reduce the rate of them is through vaccination.  Vaccination would prevent an infection and ultimately destroy the line of transmission for that disease agent.  However, vaccines have not been developed for all infectious diseases, not yet anyway.  Without a vaccine, a person can do 2 things.  One, improve your immune system.  Simply taking a multivitamin or vitamin C and E supplements will boost the immune systems ability to fight infections.  Two, follow proper sanitary practices.  Wash your hands after using the bathroom, after handling raw meat, before eating dinner, etc.  Remember, the dirtiest part of your body is your hands and the dirtiest objects around you are doorknobs, keyboards, and your cell phone.  And in regards to sex, condoms are always suggested, but if you really have to wonder if your partner has an STD, then maybe you shouldn't sleep with them.

Every year, as each winter season approaches us, it gets harder and harder for people to avoid getting a cold. It never fails, just as soon as the weather changes a little and starts to turn cold, people begin to sniffle, sneeze and cough and the symptoms of the common cold begin to come around once again. \n\n\nBut before you run out to the nearest store to buy a supply of tissues, cold medicine and soup, you need to understand exactly what you are up against. Your chances of being exposed to a cold germ will increase or decrease depending on the amount of contact you have with other people and how you take care of yourself. \n\n\n \nThe cold germ is spread from person to person when someone, who is infected, sneezes or coughs into the air or on you. The airborne germ then enters someone else’s body through an orifice, like your eyes, nose or mouth. You can also catch a cold by touching something that a person who has been infected has also touched and then touching your mouth, nose or eyes. \n\n\nThere are many things that you can do to prevent yourself from getting a cold. \n\n\n1. You should wash your hands a lot. This frequent hand washing, especially when using any anti-bacterial soap, will help you to get rid of any potential germs that you might have come into contact with. \n\n\n\n2. You should carry and use anti-bacterial hand lotion several times throughout the day. Use it especially when you cannot get to a bathroom and you know you have touched something infected or have been near an infected person. \n\n\n\n3. You should also get plenty of sleep or rest. If you are tired and fatigued, your body’s resistance decreases and you will find that you are more susceptible to colds. \n\n\nThere are many ways that you can fight a cold once you have caught one. \n\n\n1. You should eat spicy foods. Spicy hot foods will cause your body to expel mucus. When you eat these types of foods, your nose will start to run and you will begin to cough up mucus. Spicy foods work just like a natural decongestant but without side effects. This advice is good for those people who cannot take over the counter medication. \n\n\n\n2. You should drink plenty of liquids. Liquids like soup, water, juice and flat ginger ale will keep your body hydrated. This is true especially if you have a fever. During a fever, your body loses a lot of fluids. You will need to replenish what you have lost. Therefore you need to drink often throughout your illness. You should also avoid drinking any dairy drinks because the dairy will cause mucus to form and coat your throat making it very difficult for you to swallow and cough. \n\n\n\n3. You should use a vaporizer. It will keep the air that you breathe moist. If you do not have a vaporizer handy, then just crack open the windows in your home. This is very important if you have an extremely warm and dry home. Cracking the windows will have the same effects that a vaporizer has.

There aren't really medicines that will prevent you from getting a cold, however taking adult multivitamins, and making sure that you are eating healthy and exercises, substantially lowers your risk for getting a cold. Also making sure you wash your hands, or carry hand sanitizer with you can help. Also, avoiding people who have the cold will help too. :) Making sure your immunity is up is KEY!

Eat healthy and you should probably increase your intake of vitamin c a day, 500mg is pretty good, you can get that from supplement.\nDrink lots of water.\nSLEEP is really really important. It helps the body to fight the virus, rejuvenate you and helps build your immune system.\nIf the people around you have the cold, I try to be as careful as possible with stuff like dishes. Make sure you use hot water and bleach when cleaning. Lysol helps kill the bacteria around the house or too.\nHope this helps ya!!
