It’s time to prepare for flu season. With health supplements and convenient flu shots, Walmart is your go-to destination to get started.
Cold and flu season is looming, and now is the time to prep yourself and your family for the upcoming months by getting vaccinated, boosting your immune system, and stocking up on essentials to help you stay healthy. Whether you have young children in daycare or school, are a senior or caregiver, are at higher risk of complications from influenza, or simply want to help keep your fellow community members safe and healthy, we all have a part to play in reducing the spread of illness and protecting those most vulnerable.
Colder spells and strong winds may be hitting us this winter, a shift from last year’s unusually mild weather. With colder temperatures driving more indoor gatherings, the risk of viral infections rises. That’s why it’s more important than ever to focus on maintaining a strong immune system.
Walmart is proud to be a one-stop shop for all your health essentials, with immune supplements and the influenza vaccine easily accessible at your local Walmart pharmacy or Acces Pharma in Quebec.
Affordable supplements for all
Walmart’s Spring Valley supplements are affordable and accessible, accommodating different budgets and ensuring everyone has access to effective health care products. After all, no one should have to compromise on their health.
Spring Valley offers a range of products that help to support healthy immune function, like Spring Valley Cod Liver Oil (thanks to its blend of vitamin D, vitamin A, and omega-3 fatty acids) as well as various vitamin C supplements — including kid-friendly tangy orange and multi-fruit flavoured chewable tablets that make taking vitamins easy.
Shoppers can customize their supplement stack to suit their unique health care needs. Not sure what’s right for you? Head to a Walmart pharmacy to get personalized advice based on your health needs and situation, including age, current medications, and risk factors. Every customer can feel confident that they’ve obtained the right specific products and vaccines to prepare for cough and cold season.
Protecting yourself and your loved ones
Customers can also receive essential vaccinations, including the flu vaccine, at Walmart pharmacies. The flu vaccine is now available in Walmart pharmacies in all provinces (Acces Pharma in Quebec) except for Northwest Territories.
The flu shot is one of your best defences against the flu. Flu vaccines help to reduce the risk of serious flu-related complications leading to hospitilization, and also protect the health care system from being overwhelmed during flu season. According to the Government of Canada, the flu vaccine is recommended every year in the fall or winter, ideally before the flu season arrives, and almost everyone who is at least six months of age should get one.
It all starts with a quick trip to your local Walmart, and personalized advice from your local pharmacist that ensures a healthy and prepared start to cold and flu season.
Protect yourself and your loved ones this cold and flu season. Stock up on Spring Valley supplements and get your flu shot today.
To be sure a product is right for you, always read and follow the label.
