When the season changes and the weather gets cooler often people come down with running noses, colds and flu’s. If you fall victim to this then your immune system and constitution may be run down and in need of a tune up to keep your body strong and your energy levels high.

Following are my top 5 tips to keep your immune system strong:

Eat a minimum of 3 well-balanced meals per day including natural sources of proteins, healthy fats, low glycemic load carbohydrates and fresh fruits and vegetables. The colder the weather the more energy we burn up to keep our bodies warm and insulated. If there’s no coal in the fireplace there can be no heat. So eat regular nutritious meals daily to ensure you’re feeding your body its required nutrients.
Supplement with a good multi-vitamin and mineral supplement, omega 3 fish oil, Vitamin C, Vitamin D-3 and pro-biotics.
Exercise! – Keeping our bodies moving and circulation pumping helps deliver vital nutrients and oxygen to our bodies systems and eliminate any germs or viruses more rapidly.
Keep your house warm and dry. By keeping your home warm and dry your body doesn’t have to constantly work so hard to keep itself warm. And by keeping your home warm and dry you reduce any mold or fungus which can accumulate in the damp season.
Have Fun! – Studies indicate that happy people are much healthier people. Invite friends over for a fun and games or watch a funny movie or see a live stand up comedy show. These are just a few ways to add some fun into your life.

Follow these 5 tips and you’ll keep yourself healthy and strong and beat that cold and flu bug.
