- Relax!
A low / moderate level of stress can be good, as it helps you prepare for a challenge that you have to face. But if the stress is chronic and prolonged, it lowers your immunity. - Get a pet!
It is no coincidence that the dog is man’s best friend. Pet owners (with fur) have lower blood pressure, lower cholesterol and a healthier heart. Children with pets have better immunity and have a lower risk of developing allergies. - Make time for friends!
Having family and friends has a beneficial effect on your health. If you don’t have friends, volunteer or join a club! - Look at the full side of the glass!
When you have positive thoughts, your defense system works better. Try to focus on the good things in your life. - Laugh as much as you can!
Studies show that people who laugh (even when watching funny videos) have a much better immunity. - Eat as diverse as possible!
Colored fruits and vegetables contain a lot of antioxidants (which fight against pathogens and microbes) – choose as many colors as possible on your plate! - Get moving!
Exercise is a simple way to improve your immune system. It also reduces stress and the risk of developing osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease and certain types of cancer. You can choose anything: swimming, cycling, walking, etc. - Get enough sleep!
Without proper rest, your body will not be strong enough to fight the disease. An adult should sleep 7-9 hours a night (no more, no less). - Give up alcohol!
Too much alcohol can lower your immune system. What is the maximum dose? One glass / day for women and 2 glasses / day for men. - Quit smoking!
It is known that smokers have a weaker immune system due to nicotine. - Wash your hands with soap for at least 20 seconds.
- When you have a cold or the flu, eat bone broth!
