Winter is HERE! Every year we see an uptick in the flu around this time and we start to think about immune building supplements. This time of year we must be diligent about keeping our immune health strong.
Supplements are a great addition to a healthy lifestyle but, supplements do not kill viruses and bacteria, it is YOUR immune system that kills pathogens. We are exposed to pathogens daily and a healthy immune system should be able to fight them off.
Learn more about ways to stay strong, and stay healthy this winter.
How do you strengthen your immune system?
I rarely get sick, but if I do it is usually after a few nights of poor sleep during a stressful time in my life.
Here’s a few ways to strengthen your immune system:
Get plenty of sleep
Maintain proper nutrition
Exercise regularly
Manage stress levels
Consider regular chiropractic adjustments to reduce inflammation
Key Immune-Supporting Supplements:
The most important Vitamins to supplement with are Vitamin D and Vitamin C. Also supplementing with the mineral Zinc will help boost your innate immune system.
Vitamin D - Facilitates normal immune response
Vitamin C - Powerful antioxidant that strengthens natural defenses
Zinc - Works at the cellular level to fight viruses and bacteria
We're exposed to pathogens daily, and a healthy immune system should effectively handle them. Poor sleep during stressful periods often leads to illness, highlighting the importance of lifestyle factors alongside targeted supplementation.
Take the Next Step for Your Health
Building a strong immune system is a daily practice that involves nurturing your body with good habits. By focusing on sleep, nutrition, exercise, stress management, and regular chiropractic care, you can empower your well-being and stay healthy all year long.
