As the weather gets colder, wetter, and just miserable, it becomes the time of the year that we start to spend more indoors to avoid the elements. We also know this is that time of the year, the cold and flu season. Our children are getting sick, coughs, and sniffles are everywhere. It is official, cold and flu season is here and no one wants to be caught off guard.
I stay on top of my responsibilities by being prepared for anything, anytime and all seasons of the year. With it being winter season, I like to stay prepared with the products that we have found to use the most during each cold and flu season. Even the simple sough and sore throat is enough to keep people in bed and out for action. When I feel under the weather, Ricola® Sugar Free Lemon Mint Drops keep me powering through my day by keeping my throat relieved which keeps me from being miserable. Whether it’s running for a workout or running after my kiddos, Ricola helps me feel my best, even if I start to feel my worst.

Are you getting ready for cold and flu season? Has your family gotten sick yet? What are some things you do to stay healthy this time of year?
Ricola Herbs just sound so healthy and natural! I love all of the new flavors.
I am physically prepared for cold and flu season but I don’t think I am mentally prepared for the cold weather here. I have always loved Ricola products. Thank you for the tips!
I love Ricola but I am not a fan of how most of them taste. They sure to work good so I buy them based on that. They aren’t horrible, but have this weird taste. Hard to explain. But I’d rather they work than taste like candy!
You can never have enough of these products to get you through the winter. Love Ricola products too!
I always have a few packed in my purse. So important during winter!
Couldn’t agree with you more. A must have purse item for this time of year.
When I was in basic training, we called these “private crack’ because they were one thing we were allowed to have that was candy-ish. Since we were doing a lot of outside work in the winter in Missouri, they were nice to have around.
I LOVE those things! That are a God send when I get sick. It seems like everyone around me has the flu, I’m just praying (and washing my hands like crazy) that my family and I are spared this year!
We already faced a nasty bout of the crud – high fevers then hand, foot, and mouth. It’s hard to prepare for cold season but you have given me some great ideas!
I’m always safe during the flu season, I tend to never catch it!
Love Ricola! Especially now I’m constantly getting sick and it’s the only thing that helps!
Love Ricola and keep them everywhere- purse, car, and all over the house. They are great at this time of year especially for that tickle in your throat
I’m ready for cold and flu season. I have my Ricola cough drops stocked.
My Christmas Cold is just around the corner. It never fails; I get sick right when we get out for Christmas break. I’ll have to stock up on these!
Ricola is my favorite go to in winter months. They taste amazing and work fast! Thanks for sharing these tips.
I love love Ricola and how it makes me feel! Clears me right on up!
Oh yeah. Cold season is here for sure. I definitely will be getting some Ricola to help get through it.
My family gets ready for cold and flu season by taking Vitamin C, eating right, and keeping our heads covered! LOL! I know that sounds old school, but I believe a covered head wards off many colds.
I am ready for cold and flu season. I just got my flu shot and i have a good supply of medications. I love Ricola drops. They sooth my throat when i feel sick. I have had two colds already this year.
Ricola is one of those brands that brings back so many memories for me. My grandma used to give them to my brother and me in Church when we were young.
One of my twins got over a 3 week cold and she’s got it again! I might be next so I’m stocking up on products like this, drinking lots of water and taking vitamins. I don’t have time to be sick, ever!
I always keep Ricola drops around in the winter. It seems like I constantly have a sore throat.
Ricola works so well. I always keep a package around the house.
Love the Ricola brand of cough drops. Great tips for getting ready, it seems I walwyas come back with a cold from our trips
I wish I read this before I got sick!
Oh man, I hate cold/flu season! It’s the worst! We have been trying to be diligent about washing our hands all the time! Hope it pays off!
We’ve all had a cold this season. My kids got sinus infections and ear aches to go along with them. I had quite a few Ricola last week when my throat was really scratchy and tickling.
Ricola is the ONLY brand of cough drops my hubby will use! They are great! We try to wash our hands A LOT. And yes, we have already been sick, but not as much as last year, fingers crossed it stays that way!
These are all great tips. I am hoping to avoid getting sick this year. I have been eating healthier and exercising.
Last year my daughter got the flu. Hoping it doesn’t happen again this year. Those Swiss Herbs are our favorite here.
I can’t help but sing RIIICOOLAAAAA every time I purchase them at the store. They are my go to product for when I’m feeling sick.
I ujst picked up Ricola! I love them for our dry winter air!
These are good tips. I need to try some of them obviously, since I have already been sick twice this season.
I’ve been sick a lot this fall. Thankfully, I’ve been well for a couple of weeks. I keep these drops on hand – they have helped me tremendously!
I have already been sick twice this winter. I just try to wash my hands better 🙂
Good advice. Love Ricola and is an awesome company.
These are all great ways to stay healthy. Ricola is a great brand and I like to keep them in my bag for those times I need one.
Ricola is one of my favorite cough drops. They don’t burn my throat, they help soothe and they taste delicious! Thanks for sharing this info.
