Tips to Strengthen Your Immune System💪
Throughout the whole immune process, the body requires certain micronutrients to help fend off invading microbes and diseases. One of the best ways to get these micronutrients is through your nutrition.
Food provides energy and nutrients to help our immune cells work effectively in prevention and recovery. You may be thinking, "so I could find some eating plans online." But it is not easy as you think!
Everyone needs to have their own specialized eating plan. A program that someone else is following might not be good for your body. The immune system requires many different vitamins, minerals, proteins and fats to function optimally.
In terms of immune health, here are our top dietary recommendations:
➡️ Ensure 1/2 your plate at all meals is 50% vegetables
➡️ If you drink alcohol, drink only in moderation
➡️ Reduce inflammatory foods (the most common are sugar, dairy, wheat, corn and peanuts)
➡️ Spice up your meals - Spices and herbs like clove, oregano, thyme, cinnamon, and cumin contain antiviral and antimicrobial properties
➡️ Eat probiotic rich foods - see our post from Dec 9 for the benefits of fermented foods
The best eating plans come from a partnership with your naturopathic doctor. Changes should be reasonable and sustainable. Book an appointment with our naturopathic doctors to support a healthy life.😊❤️ Link in bio🔗 or call 587-521-3595.
