Keep your immune system strong ! Keeping your immunity strong all year long need not be a difficult task if you put your mind to it. All that is required is a little tweak in your lifestyle and habits. Here are some handy tips.
Take adequate rest
There is perhaps no better tonic than rest to rejuvenate the body. Quality sleep is essential if you want to have a strong immune system. Make sure that you have a regular sleep routine. ‘Early to bed and early to rise’, remains a relevant mantra, it has been for ages. Remember, sleep is the time when your body repairs itself. Hit the sack early and wake up, ready to take on the world!
Exercise and play
Come to think of it, we human beings have been created for movement. Research statistics clearly point out that an increasingly sedentary lifestyle is to be blamed for most of the illnesses these days. So, get, set, go. It is time to have fun. Regular exercise can work wonders for boosting your immunity. For kids, there could be nothing more enjoyable than playing outdoors. What better than fresh air, sunlight and play for good health?
Balanced nutrition
Take care of what you put on your plate. After all, a lot of what we are is about what we eat. Take good care of your diet ( 7 yummy delights for kids and adults). Balance is the key here.
You need to ensure sufficient intake of the various vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Include a variety of vegetables and fruits in your diet, along with nuts, lean meat, seafood, and whole grains for robust immunity.
Reduce stress
Stress is considered the bane of modern times. However, there are ways in which you can reduce stress such as meditation, exercise, listening to music, stretching, etc. Practice positive thinking all the time. Always have a smile on your face and develop a growth mindset. Remember, emotional health has a direct effect on the physical health of a person.
Staying socially connected, and spending time with loved ones is another way to beat stress. The more stress-free you are, the more the uptick on the immunity front.
Say goodbye to unhealthy habits and keep your immune system strong
It goes without saying good health follows good habits. Say no to unhealthy habits such as alcohol and smoking. Try and stay away from junk food. Avoid waking up late at night. Instead, hit the bed early and get restful sleep (Know, how much sleep does a child needs?) Wake up early, get some sunlight and enjoy fresh outdoor air.
