1.     Embrace a proper diet plan. It feels good to just grab the nearest junk food, but the long-term health consequences are not good. Visit your gastroenterologist to know the proper diet plan that works for you.
2.     Food allergies. While you may not know all the foods you are allergic to, avoid foods or substances that may contain ingredients that have once irritated your body system in the past.
3.     Proper ventilation system. Stomach flu has been known to spread faster during winter. Most people stay bundled up in their houses, leading to faster spread of the flu. Ensure your home is properly ventilated at all times.
4.     Avoid infected persons, including any item of clothing that comes in contact with them. Cutlery used by the infected one shouldn't be used by others.
