But you're around your family for the holidays, trying to avoid germs at the gym but working out during the holidays is a must with all the stuffing, Starbucks high calorie but OH so good drinks we wait all year for (even though they will still make you them year round-it's just not the same!) and your Auntie's famous apple crisp.
Well here are some ways to help boost that immune system:
- A glass of cranberry juice a day. It is packed with vitamin C, which is vital to a healthy immune system. Also,drinking unsweetened cranberry juice may help reduce your risk of urinary tract infections. (Make sure you're not going for the cranberry cocktail loaded with sugar).
- Drink lots and lots of pure water.
- Keep your insides happy and healthy:
- Eat dark-green, red, and yellow vegetables and fruits. They're packed with numerous antioxidants, plus vitamins A, C, E, and beta-carotene.
- Regualr exercise:
- You boost your immunity everytime you get your heart pumping
- Rest up! Get sleep! We need at least 8 hours of sleep each night.
- Reduce your stress level-I know finals are almost here! Relax, drink some green tea with lemon (good in thinning mucus if you have a clod), and think that break is just around the corner!
Lesson: Stay active and healthy, making sure you wash those hands and strengthen your immune system!
