Don’t Wait To Build Your Immune Defenses

Now is a good time to start building your IMMUNE SYSTEM for flu season. Whether you are concerned about colds or flu, there are some great natural strategies for you to use to build your immune system.

Let’s review a bit about viruses and immune function. VIRUSES are opportunistic and function like scavengers. If the host is healthy and there is nothing to scavenge, the virus will not be successful.

An average body is somewhat easy to bring into balance and KEEP WELL. You want to make sure you are eating well balanced meals, The FIRST OUTBREAK of a cold or flu virus in the school is usually after our first bout of cold rainy weather, and it is usually after Thanksgiving. It seems to be the combination of rich food, virus exchange with cousins, and cold weather that keeps us inside (Vitamin D deficiency) that yields the first wave.

Cold and flus outbreaks also come from “FAST LIVING”. This is when we really need to be prepared. This is when we get run down from things like following the football team to all of their games while continuing all of our “normal” activities.

Watch for times of DECREASED IMMUNITY and boost yours naturally so you can stay well and enjoy life.
