viruses back to back

[notsurewhatshappening]

Every couple of weeks I get struck down by another virus which lasts a few days... splitting headache, fatigue, sore throat, body aches. I know it could be much worse but it's the frequency which gets me down. In the last month I've had 3 different viruses with only a couple of days of feeling well in between
I work with children (part time teacher) so I do pick up every bug going but even in the summer holidays I was coming down with something very regularly. I have a gym and swim membership that I want to make the most of but often feel too unwell. I take a multivitamin daily, get 8 hours' sleep a night and don't drink any alcohol. Is there anything that can be done to get out of this cycle?

What's your diet like? Diet and hand washing (not that I am suggesting you don't!!!) can be massive for helping prevent viruses. Make sure you get a flu jab too. It doesn't protect you from all types of flu, but if you're already easily susceptible to things, crossing a few off the list with the jab would help.

Thanks. Diet is pretty good but could be improved. I've done well today, loads of fresh vegetables.

Interested in the replies you get for this op as I've been a bit run down lately as well. It's not easy. x
