I am sure, if you listen to the radio or watch TV, that you have heard more time then you can count that cold and flu “season” is upon us and it’s going to be a “bad one.”
Here’s how the nervous system’s effects your immune system.
Here are some tips to help you skip the “season.”
- Regular Chiropractic care – more on this below.
- 7 to 8 quality hours of sleep a night (not a week).
- Eat plenty of different organic veggies (lots of colors).
- Regular exercise (a daily brisk walk does wonders).
- Hydrate! Half you weight is the number of ounces of water you body need to do all the biochemistry it does.
- Probiotic supplement or plenty of fermented foods like organic sauerkraut, pickles. kimchi.
- Vitamin D w/ Vitamin K2 -dose should be determined with me or someone who has extensive knowledge of Vitamin D.
- Vitamin C best from fruits like Strawberries, Oranges, Kiwifruit, Grapefruit, Cantaloupe. (NOT orange juice)
- Avoid toxic environments (this means physical as well as mental and emotional).
- Daily Meditation (proven immune system support) .
- Positive affirmations – a study done at Stanford University showed that the affirmation of “I AM HEALTHY’ increased immune system response by 30 to 40 percent. Avoid saying “I’m getting sick” or I feel sick.”
I would be remiss if i didn’t bring your attention to a fatal in the germ theory. The simplest way to do so is with an analogy. If you have 2 trash cans and one is filled with garbage and the other is squeaky clean, which one will attracts flies?
The same concept applies to us.
We are blessed with an awesome innate intelligence that uses the nervous and immune systems to keep the us “squeaky clean” when we have to deal with unwanted germs. When we employ as many of the lifestyle tips listed above we can supercharge our health and reduce or eliminate the effects of cold and flu germs.
The nervous system controls and coordinates every organ, tissue and function of the body! This fact is why regular Chiropractic care is an integral part in the effort to keep the nervous system free from nerve interference.
There are copies of the booklet pictured above that will answer any questions as to how Chiropractic care strengthens immunity. And of course I will be happy to answer any question you may have about immunity.
Lets flip the narrative to Health & Wellness Season by super charging our immunity!
