A strong immune system is vital, especially during cold and flu season. Your immune system is your main line of defense against illnesses and infections. Unfortunately, many peoples’ systems don’t function as well as they should. While there are several reported ways of improving your immunity, it is often difficult to separate fact from fiction. Here are a few simple do’s and don’ts to improve your immunity and help you body fight off sickness.

DO TAKE PROBIOTICS improve your immunity
Probiotics are most often marketed to people with digestive problems. While they do aid in the digestion of food, they can also help improve your immunity. They contain good bacteria that is essential to your overall health. Research indicates that the quality of the probiotics inside your stomach is linked to the strength of your immune system.

DO TAKE CARE OF YOUR NERVOUS SYSTEM
Your brain and spine control every single cell in your entire body. If you find yourself getting sick frequently, it could be due to a misaligned spine. Spinal misalignment prevents signals from traveling throughout your body like they should and can have a major impact on your health. Schedule an appointment with your Denver chiropractor to find out if you are in need of spinal correction.

DON’T CONSUME SUGAR
Refined sugars contain no nutrients. In fact, they are classified as anti-nutrients because they actually take nutrients away from the body to metabolize into the system. Once they have been depleted, the body’s overall health becomes compromised and the immune system may not be able to fight off colds or the flu.

DON’T LET STRESS GET YOU DOWN
Excess stress takes a toll on your immune system. When you are stressed, your body produces a hormone called cortisol. This stress hormone increases blood pressure and blood sugar and leads to a weakened immune system. While you probably cannot avoid all the stressors in your life, you can engage in stress-relieving activities like meditation, exercise or getting a massage.
