While health should be front and center year-round, now is the time to be extra vigilant about staving off sickness and stocking up on wellness products. Thanks to online ordering and the large number of products readily available, getting the essentials is easier than ever before. Here are the must-have products you should keep on your shopping list when you feel sickness coming on.

 

Restock your cabinet with wellness products such as medication and vitamins.

When you feel symptoms starting to manifest, you’ll want to act fast. Thankfully, there are plenty of options for cold medicines such as Mucinex with specific focuses, such as severe congestion and cold & flu.

You’ll also want to keep your immune system at full strength. Vitamin C supplements are a medicine cabinet mainstay for this very reason, as they can pump up your immune system and help you battle high blood pressure and iron deficiency. Grocery delivery services are ideal for stocking up on these items without leaving the home.

 

Disinfectant and a mask will help you battle germs.

Keeping up against possible contaminations is key to staying healthy. Disinfectant sprays and wipes are essential to wiping out bacteria.

Additionally, fabric masks are a necessity for protecting yourself and others. While they might not be the easiest to come by currently, face mask materials such as cotton fabrics and hand towels can be found at major online retailers such as JOANN along with disinfectant spray and wipes at Target.

Humidifiers can help clear your congestion.

A mainstay during times of sickness, humidifiers have numerous health benefits. Most importantly, humidifiers help to make your cough more “productive” to loosen up phlegm in the body. Additional benefits include reducing dry skin and snoring.

Retailers such as Walmart offer a wide selection of affordable humidifiers.

 

 

A thermometer is key to monitoring your health.

A great way to keep an eye on your symptoms is to know your temperature. A healthy body temperature is around 98.6°F, while a fever is considered 100.4°F or higher. Digital thermometers are very popular for their speed and accuracy. Retailers such as CVS offer affordable digital thermometers for as low as $12.99 online.
