Hey there friends!

⚠️I wanted to take a minute to share some immune support tips in light of the current Coronavirus crisis.

🖐There are MANY things we can do besides handwashing and disinfecting to protect ourselves, our families, and our communities from this virus and other infectious agents. ***handwashing and disinfecting are GREAT places to start and should NOT be discounted***

That being said...

🗝🗝🗝Here are my top 5 EASIEST keys to boost your immune system.

1. 🍎🥕🥗Eat a healthy, balanced diet. High blood sugar causes inflammation and weakens the immune system

2. 💦💦💦Stay well hydrated. Fluids help regulate all kinds of processes in your body and serve to flush out toxins

3. ☀️🌳🌷Get outside and get some fresh air (wearing sunscreen of course). Spending time outside in nature is beneficial to mental health (reduced stress) which is intricately connected to physical health.

4. 🚶‍♀️🏃‍♀️🕺Get a little exercise, preferably outside- even if it's just going for a short walk or having a dance-off with your kids. Keep it fun and you'll be more likely to stick with it. Exercise lowers blood pressure, improves lung function, and helps the body more efficiently use white blood cells to protect against infection.

5. 🧘‍♀️🧘‍♀️🧘‍♀️Deep breathing promotes relaxation and reduces stress hormones that can interfere with immune function.

I hope all of you are able to stay safe and healthy❤️
