9 ways to boost your immune system
Today more than ever, we value our health and well-being. A strong immune system is important as we want our bodies to be able to defend themselves against diseases. Here are a few tips on on how to strengthen your immune system and generally feel better quickly.
1.Avoiding Stress
Too much stress whether it be physical or mental, can provoke a negative effect on your cardiovascular system and increase your susceptibility to infection. It is very important to take a break from your usual routine to relax the body and mind. What better to do that with than a little yoga? With the countless online ressources you won’t even need to leave your house.
2. Exercise and fresh air
It is no secret that exercising and going outdoors are both good for the body. It doesn’t matter if you just want to take a stroll or if you are motivated enough for a run, your body will thank you regardless. Just make sure you are visible to the traffic around you.

3. Enjoying some sunny vitamin D
During the winter, when the sun is shinning, most people will want to go out on a walk to feel the warmth on their faces and fill up on vitamin D. However whether the sun will show its face or not is not something we can choose. So what can you do when the sun does not show its face, but you still want to feel re-energized? Maybe you can opt for Vitamin Supplements.
4. Taking cold showers
Taking cold showers is something that’s becoming more and more popular. That is due to the positive effects on the immune system. However it is a hard thing to do as the temptation to run hot water is huge, especially during winter time. Perhaps a good way to stay motivated is making sure you will be rewarded the second you step out of the shower. Imagine putting on a very cosy fleece bathrobe after being under cold water!
5 – Staying warm
If you are not planning on joining the cold showers club, then staying warm is especially important. As a child we were always told to dress warmly. The cold weakens the body’s immune responses by causing the cells to move more slowly. It is important to keep your head, hands and feet warm.
6. Getting good sleep
It is known that sleeping is essential to our well-being because the body’s defence works the most at night. Therefore, sleep, especially good sleep, is essential. However sleeping well isn’t a given for everyone. If you sometimes have trouble falling asleep you can try some breathing exercices or meditation. You can also try some pillow spray that will help you feel relaxed.
Deep Sleep Pillow Spray – £17.58
7. Drinking Water
Although some are tired of hearing it over and over again, it is important to stay hydrated. Our mucous membranes and airways need to stay moist. As soon as they are too dry, bacteria and viruses can not be transported away and susceptibility to infection increases. This smart water bottle, tracks water intake and glows to remind you to stay hydrated
8. Hugs
Proximity to people is also very important for our bodies. People who experience a lot of affection have been shown to be less ill and/or have less severe symptoms from colds. With the ongoing pandemic however, hugs should be limited to people from your own household. So to make up for the lack of hugs you can get a weighted blanket which are known to have many health benefits.

9. Eating healthy food
The immune system is also strengthened if you eat healthily. A balanced diet with meals that consist of fresh products such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, fish and vegetable fats is best. If you need a little inspiration, look here.
