Here are some natural ways you can boost your immune system and stay away from the flu all season!
1. Best cure is prevention: Get your cervical spine (neck) checked, if you are getting recurrent colds and flues. The nerves that come out of your Cervical spine branch out and control two main areas: one is your arms and hands. if there’s a lack of nerve flow from your neck down you can get weakness, loss of sensation, as well as tingling and numbness in your arms/hands. The second set of nerves that comes out of the cervical spine directly communicates with the metabolism center and immune center in your brain. If a nerve in your neck area is blocked, it could negatively effect your immune system as well as your metabolism. Your chiropractor can eliminate any nerve interference and give you a flu-less season!
2. A healthy nutritious diet: Vitamin D (typically in egg yolk, Atlantic herring, shrimp and other types of seafood) is an important regulator in immune response. Olive Leaf Extract heightens immunity and enables the body to destroy viruses, pathogenic bacteria, and fungi. Be sure to find an extract that has been standardized to 10-20 percent oleuropein in it. Coconut Oil contains important fatty acids which have anti-viral and anti-bacterial properties. Zinc strengtherns your immune system, specially if you feel that you’re starting to get sick.
The list goes on and on, but the point is to avoid drugs, vaccination and other chemicals and rely on your healthy natural and raw nutritions as well as your own immune system to support your body through each and every season.
3. Hydrate: enough said. Hydrate people!
4. Exercise: regular exercise has been shown to increase your immune system resistance and a major ‘side effect’ of it, is that it keeps you fit and looking good in your clothes.
