Boost Your Immunity

 

Boost Your ImmunityIt’s smart to keep your immune system strong, so that you can ward off what the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says is a flu that is even worse than last year’s–and that one was historically bad. With fears of the new coronavirus ( COVID-19 ) also sweeping the globe, now is the time to keep yourself fortified.

Here are some things you can do to help build a strong immune system

Exercise​

Whether you jog, dance, hike or swim, keep moving. Find an activity indoors that you love, and will keep up. Research shows that exercise provides a boost to the cells in your body that attack bacteria.

Eat Color

Make sure to munch on greens (kale, spinach), reds (beets, berries, red peppers), and oranges (carrots, citrus), rich in antioxidants and vitamin C.

Elderberry

Elderberry has been used to treat infections by native people for centuries, and it is now hugely trendy. During the height of cold and flu season, it can be a good idea to take elderberry syrup, supplements or gummies prophylactically, as elderberry contains antioxidants that help boost immunity.

Wash your hands frequently

Regularly and thoroughly clean your hands with an alcohol-based hand rub or wash them with soap and water.
