In order to help others be healthy, you have to stay healthy! The key is to start with you and make sure you are doing everything to keep your immune system boosted. Remember… a healthy home is a happy home!
- Start by making sure you get an adequate amount of sleep each night, maintain a healthy diet, exercise, reduce stress, drink plenty of fluids, and wash your hands!
- Probiotics! Approximately 80% of your immune system surrounds your digestive system. There are many foods that have probiotics that can help keep your gut flora healthy. (Organic yogurt is a good source of probiotics)
- Natural Immunity Boosters- Herbs such as larch, oregano oil, Japanese Mushrooms & Honeysuckle flower buds, sage extract, ginger,graviola, plant ago seeds, pumpkin seeds, and elderberry are all great in helping you boost your immune system!
- Make sure you are getting your nutrients! Vitamin B12, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Iron, Zinc, Manganese, Selenium, Phytonutrients (like garlic & Echinacea).
Here is a list of supplements/ products that we use in our household to keep us healthy and happy!
