As winter approaches, staying healthy becomes a priority, especially with the onset of cold and flu season. Dr. Yael Vernado, known as Dr. V, a practicing physician at Johns Hopkins, shares practical wellness tips to help individuals maintain their health during this busy time of year.

Dr. V emphasizes the importance of foundational habits, including sleep, exercise, and proper nutrition. “Hand washing is always important,” she notes, as it helps prevent the spread of illness. She also recommends Cognizin Citicoline, a brain health nutrient that supports mental energy, focus, and attention. “I recommend Cognizin to my patients because it’s shown to be effective in clinical trials,” she says. Cognizin is third-party tested and suitable for daily use in healthy adults and adolescents.

For those trying to combat flu-like symptoms, Dr. V suggests Oscillococcinum. “It doesn’t prevent the flu, but it reduces the duration and severity of symptoms like body aches, headache, and fever,” she explains. Recommended for individuals aged two and up, this non-drowsy treatment does not interact with other medications, making it a practical option for many.

Sleep is another essential component of wellness. Dr. V highlights Dream Valley’s cooling comforter, which uses NASA-grade Outlast technology to regulate temperature, ensuring comfortable, uninterrupted sleep. “It’s perfect for hot sleepers who want to stay cozy without constantly adjusting the thermostat,” she says.

For those struggling with congestion or poor air quality, Dr. V recommends Naväge, a drug-free nasal care solution that uses powered suction to flush out mucus and allergens. “It helps people with allergies or sinus issues breathe easier and sleep better,” she notes.
