Immune Boosting Secrets for Fall Survival

It is commom to experience immune distress during Fall. That's because aorund this time the colder temperatures start to arrive and we start to spend more time indoors than outdoors.

What can you do short of locking yourself in a tower? Several tactics can help you steer clear of sickness this season and anytime!

 

1. Avoid crowds when you can.

2. Wash your hands. A lot. With warm water, soap and rapid movement.

3. Avoid coughers and sneezers. Not everyone who coughs is sick, but it’s ok to walk the other direction if you’re unsure.

4. Don’t touch any more doorknobs, railings or “public handles” than you have to. Push doors open with your foot or shoulder.

Despite best efforts, sometimes we get sick. Then what? Try these strategies and supplements to boost immune health and recovery:

 

1. Nap, rest, lie down. Get horizontal. Sleep helps your immune system recover and repair itself.

2. Avoid added sugar. Excessive sweets and sugary beverages weaken the immune system and extend recovery time. Keep away from candy, cookies, ice cream and soda while you fight germs.

3. Eat your healthiest. Load up on fresh veggies, fruits, lean protein and whole grains to feed your body the best it can get.

4. Drink up! Hydrate yourself with water, warm herbal teas, juice, broth and other fluids to help keep things moving through the digestive and lymph systems.
