Our Five Favorite FREE Immune Boosters
1) Exercise - Increasing blood & lymph circulation helps oxygenate the body
& eliminate nasty toxins (including bacteria & viruses). Also, this positive outlet
also helps decrease stress…which is known to decrease immunity. The breathwork (emphasized
so much in Yoga & Pilates) plays a key role. The benefits are endless, but that's
it in a nutshell.
2) Adequate, quality sleep - Children need this time to grow & restore all
of the amazing functions of their bodies.
3) Decrease/Eliminate Sugar - We know this is a toughy!!!... but stay motivated
by thinking about how much being sick affects everyone's day/week! Another bonus
is that it "reboots" the palette. Natural sugars (ie of an orange) will taste sweeter
than ever.
4) Decrease/Eliminate Dairy - Some believe it increases mucus production
& is a common food allergen. This is especially important to do if you or your little
one already has a cold, congestion, ear infection, or the like!
5) Prevent those icky bugs with Good hygiene, good hygiene, good hygiene!!!
However, do not use anti-bacterial hand soap or cleaners because they just breed
stronger bacteria!
