Immune Builders with Nutrition

Here are 5 tips to boost your immune system:
1. Eat mostly plants and whole foods
Plant foods are LOADED with nutrients to keep us at our optimal health.
This is a great time to practice some new plant-based recipes. Here are a few foods to include that are rich in antioxidants and essential nutrients to power your immune response:
Leafy greens
Citrus fruits
Broccoli
Garlic
Ginger
Turmeric
Green tea
2. Avoid processed foods and sugar
These foods may have a long shelf life, which is why they are flying off the shelves right now. However, they are highly inflammatory, stress your immune system, and are low in vitamins and minerals.
Focus on buying whole foods and making nourishing meals.
3. Get 8 to 9 hours of sleep
Sleep is when your body rejuvenates and replenishes, so make sure you’re getting plenty of rest. Having trouble falling asleep? See tip #4 😉
4. Reduce your stress levels
Chronic, prolonged stress suppresses your immune system. There’s a lot of anxiety in the air right now, so it is even more important to focus on recentering and de-stressing.
Give your body extra support through meditation, dancing, reading, snuggling your pet, or any other favorite activity that relaxes you.
5. Wash your hands! Seriously.
This is quite possibly one of the easiest steps to keep healthy.
It is also very important to follow CDC and WHO guidelines. Even if you aren’t at serious risk, you are a vehicle for transporting viruses to someone that may be at risk.
