of swine flu.
New clinical test results show that Zoflora
disinfectant is effective in killing the H1N1 virus, which
causes swine 'flu, as well as a host of other illness-causing
viruses and bacteria. Using Zoflora to disinfect your home and your

Top tips to reduce your risk of swine
flu:
Get moving
Exercising several
times a week increases the circulation of blood and
nutrients and strengthens your
body
Sleep well
Ensure you're getting a quality
night's sleep as your body needs to rejuvenate and fortify when it
is at rest
Water's worth
Drink plenty of water as this will help flush out toxins and
keep you hydrated
Your five-a-day
Eat fruit and vegetables every day as they contain antioxidants,
vitamins and minerals which will protect cells, particularly those
within your immune system
Keep hands clean
Stop germs spreading by washing your hands before and after
eating food, after using the bathroom and after coughing/blowing
your nose. You may like to carry a hand sanitizer with you for when
you are in areas where there are lots of people who may be carrying
the virus, e.g. public transport
Home truth
It is important to kill bacteria and viruses by ensuring your
home is hygienically clean. New scientific research commissioned by
triple-action disinfectant, Zoflora, found that homes may be
hosting thousands of unwelcome visitors that could bring illnesses
to the family. Click here to find out more.
Dirty work
An army of disease-causing germs can also live in your workplace
- from your keyboard to your telephone. In fact, a recent study by
Zoflora found that a laptop's keyboard had more bacteria than a
front door handle! If you work in an office, keep a disinfectant
spray on your desk and give the desk, phone and computer keyboard a
wipe-over a couple of times a day
Dr Catherine Hood comments: "When it comes to the cleanliness of
your home, don't rely on what looks
clean, make sure an effective disinfectant is part of your cleaning
routine too, and look for one that's proven to kill bacteria and
viruses, like Zoflora."
