Have you heard of the Aussie flu? This outbreak has hit the UK as many readers will already know so it is vital to learn how to protect yourself against Aussie flu today.
It’s a timely reminder that prevention is better than cure and looking after yourself and your family is so important. Make sure you are getting enough sleep for your wellbeing for example.
Are you sure your bodies are getting the right nutrients?
How you can protect yourself against Aussie flu?
Babi Chana, Nutritionist and Biochemist for Wiley’s Finest, has explained why Omega-3 is the essential nutrient to help our immunue system.
“Omega-3 fatty acids help our immune system and fight infections such as colds and flu. They build healthy mucous membranes – the delicate skin that lines the airways and digestive systems, which act as a first line barrier, guarding against entry of germs into the body.”
“Omega-3 EPA produces ‘eicosanoids’ that produce beneficial effects in the regulation of inflammation, immunity and blood clotting.”

I honestly can’t remember – had a couple of heavy cold/fluey-type bugs in the last 10 years but recovered pretty quickly so doubt they were the actual ‘flu. My immune system’s pretty good – can’t remember the last time I needed antibiotics, and I don’t get the flu vaccine either.
My son was ill for a week a couple of weeks ago – he had a flu like cold x
Ive had proper flu twice in my life, so terrible i hope never to catch it again…many thanks
A couple of years ago and I don’t want it again! My husband and parents have had a bad bout over Christmas and New Year
I dont think I have had proper flu but just flu like symptoms which is bad enough!
Exactly a year ago, January 2017
I’m just about recovered from the worst bout of flu I can ever remember having, it completely wiped me out for almost two weeks

Thanks for joining us at #LuckyLinky x
I had flu just over a year ago and it really knocked me off my feet
Not sure, as I never know if I have the flu. I’ve been ill recently – started with a cough, then a cold and am still coughing. Felt really low in energy as well.
I don’t think I’ve had flu for years. Luckily.
I don’t think I’ve ever had full blown flu, I’ve had really bad colds but never anything so bad that I can’t do anything
Only had flu once, about 10 years ago. It was grim, especially living alone and I lost about 2 stone
Several years ago. I can’t remember exactly as that long ago
3 weeks ago
I’ve had flu once in my life! I was 6 months pregnant at the time too, it was awful!
I’ve never suffered from flu thank goodness but my sister ended up in hospital with it a couple of years ago x
I had the flu a couple of weeks ago which wasn’t very nice xx
I really can’t remember – a few years ago, have had a few sniffles but nothing major
About two weeks ago. Still not completely over it yet.

Only had it once back in the 1990s

I don’t think I’ve ever had the flu.
Two years ago
I’ve never had it I don’t think
My worst one was back in 2014 I had to be admitted to hospital. I have ME/CFS and Fibromyalgia so always battling something
About 5 years ago it came on at hogmanay and was horrible.
Mine was about 10 years ago….i had tonsilitus alongside it too! It was grim!
I had it in December, don’t get me wrong, I was glad to get it out of the way before Christmas but I got a triple whammy of Flu, Sinusitis and Chest Infection. I had my flu jab and I think perhaps it could have been much worse if I hadn’t but it was horrible!
I’m not sure – a few years ago
3 years ago – I get the flu jab because i am diabetic but it doesnt always cover all the different flu types
Never had flu.
I’ve never had flu I think a lot of people get colds and think they have flu
I had the flu jab this year so I’ve been okay so far but I did have the flu a few years ago.
Im quite lucky normally. I think it eas a few years ago
I had flu last year
I can’t remember the last time I had flu, although I’m just getting over a shocking cold that I’ve had for over a week.
January this year was off work unpaid for over two weeks, couldnt get out of bed, not a good start to the year
Two years ago, I was poorly for three weeks
I’ve not had flu , just colds and virus thankfully .
We had the flu in January, haven’t felt as rough for ages.

Thankfully a long time ago, I am asthmatic so I receive a free flu jab every year and it’s obviously working.
I’m lucky I haven’t had flu for over 10 years x
