It's time for The Health Reset, where we speak to some of our medical experts.

We all say we’re going to eat better, get more active or finally get around to those health checks, but too often, we put it off. Irish Life Health gives you practical ways to act today, from a wide range of digital health services to access to Express Care Clinics in Dublin and Cork. For more information, see irishlifehealth.ie.

Today we will be talking about cold and flu season. How can we tackle colds and the flu, and what are the differences between viral and bacterial infections? Are there ways we can prevent these ever occurring germs and what remedies help?

Joining Andrea to answer all is Dr Maire Finn from Ennis Centric Health.
