Winter is here. That means colder weather and more sickness. But not to worry… There are a few easy steps you can take to supercharge your immune system and equip your body for the weather change! Here are 5 effective ways to help boost your immune system during these winter months.
1. Eat whole foods and hydrate

4. Exercise regularly
5. Reduce stress
Inflammation is the root of all disease and sickness. If you follow the 5 simple steps up, you will not only increase your immunity but also reduce your overall inflammation.
Due to the holidays, finances and less sun, I often see my patients struggle with #5 the most. Check out our earlier blog about “How To Reduce Stress” if you find yourself more stressed during these winter months.
One final pro tip: Did you know that adding spices to your cooking like turmeric and ginger will not only provide flavor, but both are potent anti-inflammatories with great immune boosting properties. Yes it’s true! This is exactly why both ingredients are included in our natural and vegan anti-inflammatory Inflammation Rx along with vitamin c and zinc for added immune support. This powerful and effective supplement is included in our immunity stack along with our natural and vegan mood & sleep aid, Sleep Rx. Stay safe and healthy lions!
