COVID-19/Ease of lockdown

As communities and businesses across the country begin to reopen, more people are weighing whether, and how they should head into work and, perhaps, visit restaurants, retail shops, among other places. And most people, especially health-care workers often have elaborate personal-safety rituals when they return home, like throwing clothes in the wash and immediately taking showers before they join their families. But experts say most other workers probably don’t have to go through such a rigorous regimen. All that matters is to wash our hands as soon as we get home because, really, the bigger risk is what you could be carrying inside of you.

Experts also say, there appears to be no risk of contracting the virus by eating it in cooked food, meaning that, you are in safe hands with Perpetual Light Food and Snacks, moreso that you can have your food delivered to you or picked up, just as you want it.

So, just as Perpetual Light cares for you, so also take care of yourself by regularly and thoroughly cleaning your hands with an alcohol-based hand rub or wash them with soap and water. Also, Maintain at least 1 metre (3 feet) distance between yourself and others. Protect yourself and others from the spread of COVID-19.

Eating Healthy/COVID-19

Eating a healthy diet is very important during the COVID-19 pandemic. What we eat and drink can affect our body’s ability to prevent, fight and recover from infections.

While no foods or dietary supplements can prevent or cure COVID-19 infection, healthy diets are important for supporting immune systems and Perpetual Light Food and Snacks can always help you with that. Good nutrition can also reduce the likelihood of developing other health problems, including obesity, heart disease, diabetes and some types of cancer.

For babies, a healthy diet means exclusive breastfeeding in the first six months, with the introduction of nutritious and safe foods to complement breastmilk from age 6 months to 2 years and beyond. For young children, a healthy and balanced diet is essential for growth and development. For older people, it can help to ensure healthier and more active lives.

Good hydration is crucial for optimal health. Whenever available and safe for consumption, tap water is the healthiest and cheapest drink. Instead of sugar-sweetened beverages, taking our sugar-free kunnu and ginger-flavoured zobo drink is a simple way to limit your intake of sugar and excess calories.

As countries introduce measures to restrict movement as part of efforts to reduce the number of people infected with COVID-19, more and more changes need to be made to our daily routines.

The new realities of working from home, temporary unemployment, home-schooling of children, and lack of physical contact with other family members, friends and colleagues take time to get used to. Adapting to lifestyle changes such as these, and managing the fear of contracting the virus and worry about people close to us who are particularly vulnerable, are challenging for all of us. They can be particularly difficult for people with mental health conditions. And of course, Perpetual Light promises to stand by you in these trying times.

Fortunately, there are lots of things that we can do to look after our own mental health and to help others who may need some extra support and care. It ranges from having a routine and keeping up with it as far as possible, or make new ones. Get up and go to bed at similar times every day, keep up with personal hygiene, eat healthy meals at regular times, (Perpetual Light can always help out) exercise regularly, allocate time for working and time for resting, make time for doing things you enjoy.

Meanwhile, fear is a normal reaction in situations of uncertainty. But sometimes fear is expressed in ways which are hurtful to other people. Remember, be kind, don’t discriminate against people because of your fears of the spread of COVID-19, don’t discriminate against people who you think may have coronavirus, don’t discriminate against health workers. Health workers deserve our respect and gratitude. COVID-19 has affected people from many countries, don’t attribute it to any specific group.

Proper Nutrition amidst Covid-19

While proper nutrition and hydration improve health and immunity, they are not magic bullets. They must be deliberately and consciously worked out. And at a time like when the world is faced with a severe health challenge (Covid-19), it would just be nice that necessary cautions be taken to forestall any possible danger to our health.

Proper nutrition and hydration are vital. People who eat a well-balanced diet tend to be healthier with stronger immune systems and lower risk of chronic illnesses and infectious diseases like Covid-19. So you should eat a variety of fresh foods every day to get the vitamins, minerals, dietary fibre, protein and antioxidants your body needs. Drink enough water. Avoid sugar, fat and salt to significantly lower your risk of overweight, obesity, heart disease, stroke, diabetes and certain types of cancer. Water is essential for life because it transports nutrients and compounds in blood, regulates your body temperature, gets rid of waste, and lubricates and cushions joints.

Water is the best choice, but you can also consume other drinks, fruits and vegetables that contain water, for example Perpetual Light Sugarless Kunnu. Be careful not to consume too much caffeine, and avoid sweetened fruit juices, syrups, fizzy and still drinks as they all contain sugar.

Keeping kids safe during the COVID-19 crisis

Keeping kids safe is always a parent's priority and is even more at the forefront amid the COVID-19 crisis. As a parent, being informed and guiding your children with wisdom and honesty can go a long way to helping your children remain safe and calm their anxieties. The world is rapidly changing as events unfold and new information becomes available. One very important thing you can do is get your information from a reliable source. Focus on the facts and take action.

When it comes to kids and the COVID-19 virus, teaching them to practice good hygiene is very important. Chances are you and your kids already have good practices for preventing the spread of germs, but it's always good to have a refresher. Remind your kids to wash hands frequently to avoid sharing unwanted germs, before meals and snacks (Perpetual Light Food and Snacks is always there to help out), after the bathroom, blowing their nose, coughing and playing outside. If washing hands with soap and water for 20 seconds is not an option, an alcohol-based hand sanitizer will also help ward off germs.

Stress, responsibilities and anxieties are at an all all-time high for most adults. You can't take care of your kids if you're not well. Meanwhile, attempt to communicate with children at developmentally appropriate levels. Before sharing too much, ask them what they know. Chances are they've heard plenty. With this strategy, you can avoid telling them more than they might need to know and use it as an opportunity to dispel any myths they may have heard.

When it comes to kids and COVID-19, here's what you need to remember: Help prevent the spread of the virus with good hygiene and common sense. Educate yourself on the signs of the illness and when to seek medical support. Talk to your kids about what's going on.

Perpetual Light cares for you, your kids…

Cleaning and Food Hygiene Tips to Help Covid-19 Virus Out of Your Home

While research into the COVID-19 virus is ongoing, we know the virus is transmitted through direct contact with respiratory droplets of an infected person (through coughing and sneezing), and touching surfaces contaminated with the virus. The virus may survive on surfaces for a few hours up to several days. The good news? Simple disinfectants can kill it. Now what does this mean for your home? Cleaning and disinfecting high-touch surfaces in your home regularly is an important precaution to lower the risk of infection.

Every home is different, but common high-touch surfaces include: Door handles, tables, chairs, handrails, kitchen and bathroom surfaces, taps, toilets, light switches, mobile phones, computers, tablets, keyboards, remote controls, and favourite toys.

At present there is no evidence of people catching the COVID-19 virus from food or food packaging. As always, good hygiene is important when handling food to prevent any food-borne illnesses; that is why Perpetual Light Food and Snacks is so dutiful in maintaining proper hygiene while handling your food, because your health means a million to us at this time more than ever before. We are No. 20, Adegbite Drive (behind Ajegunle Baptist Church) Agbowo UI, Ibadan.

Please, do wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds before eating and make sure your children do the same.
