How To Stay Healthy When Everyone Else Is Sick

Many people are getting sick and it seems everyone is uncertain about what to do. First and foremost, remember that we have control of ourselves, this alone gives us a ton of opportunities to strengthen our immune system. Strengthening our immune system can improve our resiliency and make it less likely to get sick. In the circumstance that a person does get sick, the stronger your immune system is will determine how fast a person recovers from the illness. 

Things you should do to stay healthy:

First thing to do is to practice proper personal hygiene. Regularly wash your hands thoroughly for 20 seconds, and avoid touching your face. Second, adequate rest and relaxation will help reduce stress. Next, it has been shown that getting about 10 minutes of sun exposure today also has a positive effect on boosting your immune system. An adequate amount of dark leafy greens, fruits and vegetables with a variety of colors will enhance your immune system by supplying a variety of nutrients and antioxidants. 

Stay healthy with chiropractic:

Last but not least, in order for anything else to work efficiently it must have proper nerve supply. This is where chiropractic comes into the picture. Studies have shown that getting chiropractic adjustment helps boost our immune system. This is done by alleviating the irritation and compression of the spine caused by subluxations. The spine houses the nervous system. Misalignments and subluxations reduce the pathways that nerves travel through and thus decrease the communication between your brain and body. Keeping your spine well adjusted allows all of the other healthy habits to work even better for your immune system. If given the right opportunity and tools, the human body will express health over disease every time.

Be healthy and well,
