Aim for total nutrition with a multivitamin (Take Reds 3000)

• Get extra vitamins and minerals every day to help prevent deficiencies that make you a target for infections

• Use exercise wisely
• Take advantage of the benefits of moderate exercise on immune function—but be careful about prolonged or intense exercise, which can temporarily increase your risk of infection

• Get the good bacteria
• Stimulate the intestine’s immune system and slow the growth of infectious organisms in the intestine by regularly eating yogurt and other foods containing live cultures, or take a supplement containing 10 billion colony-forming units a day of acidophilus or bifidobacteria (This is huge! Everyone should know about Probiotics)

• Avoid alcohol binges
• Keep your alcohol intake low or moderate to avoid damaging effects to your immune system

• Get adjusted!  Studies show that individuals who get adjustments regularly have fewer sicks days and that children who get adjusted miss less school.

Yours in Health,
