Welcome to Day 1!
Good Morning!
We will be discussing briefly the major things that affect your immune system.

Here are a few tips to support your immune system:
  • Don’t skimp on sleep!  Make sure you are getting 7-9 hours nightly.
  • Move!  Move often during the day and consider ways you can work out at home, even without getting to a gym or outside.  Be creative!  Try the 7 minute work-out or other apps available on your phones.
  • Work on stress reduction techniques.  Come up with a list of activities that work for you - and have those posted or handy for stressful times.  
  • Eat an anti-inflammatory diet.  Focus on whole, real foods with plenty of vegetables and fruits.  Try to eat a rainbow a day (fruits and vegetables from every color).  Cut sugar and processed foods.  
  • Cut unnecessary sources of oxidative stress (free radicals that damage the body).  This includes cutting down or quitting smoking, not cooking food in ways that burn/char food (browning of foods), decreasing exposure to toxins, and managing other chronic disease like diabetes, hypertension, etc.  
 These are a few ways to support your immune system.  The most important thing to remember is BALANCE.   We will all have days we are not successful following various health guidelines.  But the overall goal is to balance out each day with good choices as much as we can.
