5 Ways to Boost Your Immune System FAST!
Sharing is Caring:
Life is busy, right? Sometimes, it probably feels like you’re getting pulled in a million different directions. Maybe your health even takes a back seat now and then. However, if you’re always on the go and you want to stay on the go, you need to take care of your body. We’ve compiled some quick and efficient ways to boost your immune system, no matter how busy you are!
1.) Catch Some Rays:
Spring is quickly approaching, so it should be easier than ever to get your daily dose of vitamin D. UV rays from the sun help your body create vitamin D, which is crucial for your blood cells, bones, and immune system. Research has shown that vitamin D can send signals to the immune system.1 Head outside and soak up some sun, but don’t forget your sunscreen!
2.) Get Moving:
Your physical activity and immune system are closely connected. Moderate exercise can also improve blood flow, which helps flush toxins from your body. Take a hike, go on a walk, or ride your bike.
3.) Balance Your Diet:
Your diet can affect your immune system for better or worse. Good nutrition is essential for a strong immune system. Stock up on some immune-boosting foods2:
- Garlic
- Spinach
- Broccoli
- Ginger
- Mushroom
- Yogurt
- Almonds
4.) Sleep It Off:
The older we get, the more we value our 7–9 hours every night. Scientists have discovered that sleep can bolster your T cells, which helps stimulate the immune system.3
Try these tips to improve your sleep:
- Diffuse lavender essential oils
- Cut out caffeine after 4 p.m.
- Turn off all electric devices two hours before bedtime
5.) Keep Calm:
Stress can suppress your immune system. In fact, chronic stress releases the hormone cortisol, which halts T cell’s ability to receive signals from your body. Try reducing your daily stress by meditating, taking deep breaths, or doing some yoga!
Your immune system helps you every day. Why not take a few minutes each day and help it out in return?
