Preventing Sickness During our Chilly Weather

Good day all. Since where I live flue season is creeping up on us, I figured I'll post a few things that might help you get through all the coughing and sneezing. Whatever is posted here, do NOT use instead of seeing an actual doctor. Take caution and use common sense.

Mundane Prevention:
     Make sure you eat your fruits and vegetables to make sure your body has the right vitamins. Get enough sun, drink lots of water and wash your hands. (I know, everyone says that but it works!)

Vitamins that are good for the immune system:

•      Vitamin C is one of the biggest immune system boosters of all. In fact, a lack of vitamin C can even make you more prone to getting sick. Foods rich in vitamin C include oranges, grapefruits, tangerines, strawberries, bell peppers, spinach, kale and broccoli. Daily intake of vitamin C is essential for good health because your body doesn’t produce or store it. The good news is that vitamin C is in so many foods that most people don’t need to take a vitamin C supplement unless a doctor advises it.
•      Vitamin B6 is vital to supporting biochemical reactions in the immune system.  Vitamin B6-rich foods include chicken and cold water fish such as salmon and tuna. Vitamin B6 also is found in green vegetables and in chick peas, which is the main ingredient in hummus.
•      Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that helps the body fight off infection. Foods rich in vitamin E include nuts, seeds and spinach.

Spiritual Prevention:

•      Make sure all of your chakras are clear and aligned well. This will help you not only in preventing a cold or the flu, but with a lot of aspects of your life.
•      Mind over matter. By having the correct thought process you can help prevent illness, stress, bad fortune. And another whole big list of things.
•      Meditation. This whill help in both the chakras and the mind set. 

Next time I will post the rest on what to do if you do end up getting ill. <3 Blessings!
