This means that we are counting down the days of autumn until it slowly fades into the cooler months that eventually encourage us to cosy up within our homes. There\u2019s lots to love about winter \u2013 more excuses to cuddle up in front of the TV, and the perfect opportunity to eat delicious cold-weather food \u2013 but being cold is not one of them. To make sure that your home will be a warm, safe space during this time, we have a few tips to help you winterproof and prepare for the chilly season.<\/p>\n<p>1. Multivitamins are a welcome addition<br \/>We know, we know, eating a wide variety of fruits and veggies is one of the best ways to make sure your body has what it needs to stay healthy, giving it a good chance of fighting off infections. But meeting those goals can be tough, especially in winter. If you\u2019re worried that you\u2019re not getting enough vitamin C or zinc, why not try a multivitamin to support your immune system and help fight off colds and flu.<\/p>\n<p>2. It\u2019s time to master the family soup recipe<br \/>Let\u2019s face it, soup and winter go together like summertime and ice cream. So, when the winter chill creeps in, it\u2019s time to uncover the classic minestrone recipe that\u2019s been passed down for generations. It\u2019s an opportunity to pack all your favourite, nutritious veggies into one easy-to-consume meal. If you don\u2019t have a favourite recipe, now\u2019s your chance to experiment and find one.<\/p>\n<p>3. Heat things up<br \/>The first thing we tend to do when the world starts to cool down is switch on the heater. Unfortunately, this can result in increased energy costs as well as creating stuffy, germ-filled air as a result of poor airflow. To help your family stay warm and healthy, the LG ArtCool air conditioner offers up to 70% energy savings and uses ioniser technology to sterilise the air and kill 99% of the germs present. It also has quick heating and cooling abilities to help you warm up ASAP when you come in from the cold.<\/p>\n<p>4. Seal off your home<br \/>Before winter creeps in, give your home a quick inspection to identify any cracks or gaps between your walls, windows, or doors. Not only will this prevent a cold breeze from passing through your home, but it will prevent any potential water damage that arises as water and condensation freezes in these gaps, expanding the existing hole and compromising the integrity of your home.<\/p>\n<p>5. Read the weather report<br \/>This should be a given, but to properly prepare for a cold front, you need to know when to expect it and make the necessary preparations to stay safe and warm as temperatures plummet. If you know we\u2019re going to have a cold snap, you\u2019ll have more time to protect any sensitive plants you might have in the garden, plan some hearty meals and maybe decide what should be on your watch list for a cosy few nights in.<\/p>\n<p>Winter is coming, are you prepared to take on Mother Nature\u2019s icy vengeance? By following our tips, you\u2019ll be ready \u2013 and able \u2013 to take on the colder months.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mypr.co.za\/contact\/featured\/\">CLICK HERE to submit your press release to MyPR.co.za<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-pagination pagination\">Pages: <span class=\"post-page-numbers current\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>1<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\/5-ways-to-prepare-for-winter\/2\/\" class=\"post-page-numbers\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>2<\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\">Source: MyPR.co.za<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the Starks of Winterfell love to say, \u201cWinter is coming\u201d.
