Here are some natural tips for boosting your immune system and avoiding infection:
1. Avoid shaking hands and wash your hands frequently for about 20-30 seconds. Cover your face when coughing or sneezing by putting your face into a bent elbow.
2. Sanitize or clean work and/or home surfaces often.
3. Make better diet choices and avoid sugar. Sugar consumption lowers the strength of your immune system for several hours.
4. Manage your stress levels. Stress lowers your immune system’s ability to fight off infection.
5. Get your Chiropractic adjustments to strengthen your immune system, optimize bodily functions, and help reduce the effects of stress.
6. Use a high-quality multiple vitamin, minerals, vitamins D and C, zinc, Olive Leaf, Echinacea, and Elderberry Extract.
7. Take a high-potency, high-quality prebiotic and probiotic to support your gut flora and your innate immune system. Remember 70-80% of your immune system is found in the gut.
8. Drink some water every 15-20 minutes and keep your mouth moist.
9. Get to bed earlier for a little more sleep.
10. Exercise to help deal with stress, boost energy, support circulation, and stimulate better moods.
