Travelling home for Christmas? The confined setting and reduced fresh air of airplanes, trains, buses, and subways contribute to the spread of airborne germs

Travelling home for Christmas? The confined setting and reduced fresh air of airplanes, trains, buses, and subways contribute to the spread of airborne germs. Try misting yourself with an immune booster external-use spray before boarding. Made from essential oils of such herbs as clove, cinnamon, lemon, eucalyptus, thyme, oregano, and ravensara, immune booster spray will put up a barrier between you and flu-ridden fellow passengers. The essential oils of oregano and thyme in particular have antiviral and antibacterial properties proven in studies at the Agrotechnological Research Institute in the Netherlands in the 1990s.
