Where to start fighting the bugs.

Naturally Healthy

As the seasons change, temperatures fluctuate and the kids are back at school, we know the bugs can start to circulate.
Common sense has to prevail in lots of ways, but there are a number of simple things we can do to protect ourselves, and guard against airborne germs, as well as helping our bodies and immune systems to stay strong.
Where to start fighting the bugs?
The first step toward staying healthy is to choose a healthy lifestyle. It’s the
most simple and effective way to fight away bugs and germs.
Every part of your body, including your immune system, functions better when it
is supported by healthy-living strategies such as:
- a diet high in fruit and vegetables
- regular hydration and exercise
- adequate sleep
- good hygiene (eg, washing your hands frequently)
- low stress.
Day-to-day protection
Supplement a healthy lifestyle with these common sense daily practices so you are one step closer to protecting yourself and your family:
- wash your hands frequently
- clean home and work surfaces regularly
- cover your mouth and nose if needed
- don’t share drinking and eating utensils.
Stay Absolutely Immune
An added layer of protection
If you want to be extra sure, and add another layer of protection against seasonal ills and zealous bugs, then using pure, organic, therapeutic essential plant oils to build up the defences is a great place to start.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.

Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
