Your Immunity is Now More Important Than Ever: 10 Easy Ways to Supercharge it

Boosting your immunity is now more important than ever. Here are ten science-backed, easy steps to build your natural defense against viruses.



We are learning at an exponential rate about the new “invisible enemy” called novel Coronavirus. There are still many unknowns. Yet, scientists, physicians, and experts worldwide agree on one undeniable truth. The strength of our immune system draws the line between breezing through COVID-19 with no symptoms and ending up as one of its casualties. Our immune system is the first and the last front of defense with which mother nature equipped us to fight off viruses.


Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.” For our own safety and for the safety of those around us, we need to limit exposure to the virus by embracing social distancing and strict hygiene. We already know it works. While scientists are making progress towards a vaccine, you can focus on what you can control: supercharging your immune system!


Not tomorrow. Not next week. Today!



1. Eliminate Stress


In times of uncertainty, fear and stress are rampant. Unfortunately, the media and those around us often exacerbate it. Stress weakens the immune system immensely, making us much more susceptible to disease.

Managing stress starts with awareness. Observe your thoughts, focus on the positive, and limit your exposure to the negative (in the media, your social circle, and of course - negative self talk).

Focus on what you can control - your response to outside stressors. Choose activities that make you feel good. Self-pampering is never more important than in times like these.


Essential Oils

#Organic oils like rose, lavender, chamomile, frankincense, orange, tea tree, eucalyptus, and oregano have a calming and antiviral effect - they neutralize airborne pathogens when used in a diffuser.

Supplements

#CBD, L-theanine, Rhodiola, and SAM-e.

Super Herbs

Bulgarian Rose, Holy Basil, Astragalus, Nettle Leaves, Ashwagandha and Amla.

Calm Your Mind

#Meditation and deep breathing.



2. Increase Vitamin D3 and Vitamin C intake




While our bodies make Vitamin D from exposure to sunlight, during winter months (and in days of “shelter in place” as we now call it) we don’t get enough sun exposure and become Vitamin D deficient. Low Vitamin D levels weaken natural immunity and increase susceptibility to infection.

Vitamin C is a powerful immune booster, which is why China is using IV Vitamin C to treat its citizens infected with COVID-19.

Vitamin D3

Take 5,000 IU daily.

Vitamin C

Citrus fruit, Pure Rose Nectar, elderberries, and Amla (Indian gooseberries). Take 1,000 mg daily as liposomal Vitamin C.



3. Increase Zinc Intake


Zinc deficiency has been a common denominator amongst those that have been afflicted by COVID-19, confirmed by data out of China. Zinc is a trace element that reduces the risk for infections.

How to Consume Zinc

Take a handful of nuts/seeds like sesame, pumpkin, pine and cashew. If you are allergic to nuts, take 8 mg of zinc daily.
