In times like we live in now, we need to give our bodies all the advantage we can. As with everything in life, we can choose to follow the way of health or go on our own path. This is presented For Your Information.
- Deep Sleep is one of the most important ways to boost the immune system. Chronic insomnia can lead to immune system deficiency or poor immune response.
- Moderate exercise, at least 3 times a week. Excessive and prolonged physical activity temporarily reduces the function of the immune system.
- Reduce stress any way you know how. Stress releases the hormone cortisol which wreaks havoc with the immune system. Stress of any kind -- emotional, physical, psychological -- quickly damages the immune system.
- Eat more fruits and vegetables. They have flavonoids that have anti-bacterial and anti-viral activity. Avoid excessive sugar intake. Consume more garlic, onions, and culinary herbs.
- Ingest healthy probiotic bacteria. These friendly gut bacteria may boost the immune system.
- Reduce or eliminate smoking. Keep alcohol consumption low or moderate.
- Get a massage. Massage therapy reduces cortisol levels.
- Pray, meditate, listen to music, or find a way to still your mind.
- Do yoga, or relaxed breathing and stretching, at least once or twice a week.
- Avoid excessive sun exposure except for 30 minutes a day to create Vitamin D production in your body.
