Did you know that God made an awesome healing mating when you made you?!
Yes, there is a way NOT to get colds and flu this season withOUT getting a flue shot!
Here are the Top 7 Tips to keep you and your family well this winter:
- You ARE what you eat!
- Keep in mind this mantra…Eating fruits and veggies especially in winter months will give your immune system the vitamins and minerals it needs to combat against a germ invasion.
- Make water your primary beverage.
- Contrary to popular TV ads, Americans should NOT run on Dunkin’. This habitual lifestyle of coffee and fancy coffee drinks that we have also innocently given our children has made America sick.
- Drink half your body weight in ounces per day of water. Pack water in lunches versus sugary drinks, and limit juice to one serving per day.
- Go to bed.
- Did you know the body only heals when you’re sleeping? A sound sleep by midnight staves off chronic diseases.
- Children should be asleep by 8:00pm and adults by 10:00pm.
- Take Vitamins
- The body needs the supplementation of high-quality, organic and preferably wild-crafted vitamins and minerals.
- Choosing one with the green “Super Foods” containing: Wheatgrass, Spirulina, Blue-Green Algae, Chlorophyll, and Barley Grass not only gives you vitamin and mineral power, but it also feeds the brain. Itf this is too radical of a step to ‘eat dirt’ – yes to some it tastes like dir, choose a vitamin in either liquid, powder, or chewable forms.
- Most tasty brands are Green Vibrance or Barlean’s Greens.
- Take Cod Liver Oil and Vitamin C.
- Well…Mama was right! It turns out that God Liver Oil transports the necessary Vitamin D and acts as a conductor when sunshine is limited and Vitamin C builds your immunity.
- Carlson’s has a lemon flavored cod liver oil that is a hit!
- Vitamin C – 500mg for children and 2000 mg for adults (chewable or powdered).
- Well…Mama was right! It turns out that God Liver Oil transports the necessary Vitamin D and acts as a conductor when sunshine is limited and Vitamin C builds your immunity.
- Wash Your Hands.
- Frequent hand washing with soap (not the antibacterial* kind) is right up there with sleep and drinking water.
- Wash hands immediately upon entering your home from the outside, after touching pets, and before eating.
- BEWARE of the over-usage of anti-bacterial soaps as they are soaked right into the skin, thus building an intolerance to antibiotics.
- Cat Back on store bought Sweets.
- As we roll into the holiday season, with a party here and there, the temptations is high to indulge in sweets. Now is the time to back goodies yourself with natural ingredients to control the contents and the calories. Too many sweets weaken the immune system.
