Winter Health Boosting Is Not That Difficult

Feb 12, 2021 | Rita

During the winter, the harsh weather can make you sick just by looking at it. Okay, perhaps not, but it’s very easy to get the common cold, chesty coughs, and a whole bunch of other nasty things that make life harder. We think that it would be a good service to you dear reader, to give you some basic health information about how to avoid certain health concerns and boost your immune system. Your protection during these freezing temperatures is our priority!

Water! 

The simple act of drinking water during the colder months is so vital for your immune system. It’s quite simple really. Your white blood cells chase viruses around the body. They chase them, catch them and kill them. If you are not as hydrated as you could be, it will make it harder to catch the viruses. It’s like wading through the mud when you are a white blood cell trying to speed up and kill a virus in a system that is lacking hydration.

Wear a scarf

The hotter your blood is reaching to your head the better for your body. The warm blood will prevent viruses and germs from attacking your system through the nose. When there isn’t as much blood running through your nose, that means fewer white blood cells. This is why your nose begins to run because germs are beginning to attack and your body is trying to force liquids up to the area. But wearing a scarf can keep your nose warm because the heat around your neck will warm any blood going up.

Juice glorious juice

Vitamins and minerals are the perfect duos to fight off horrible viruses. But for that, you need a juice press. But you need a presser that has pressure so you can get the most out of your fruit. Learn more here about the X-1 Mini Press Juicer and how it is being used by both juice bars and customers who love smoothies alike. The thing is, the juice is not as readily drunk in winter because there is no produce. This is why we recommend freezing your fruit in chunks and then using something like a press that has the force to make juice drinks.

Vitamin D

Vitamin D has been shown to be very powerful. It’s even doing well against Covid-19 and that has come as a massive surprise to everyone involved. But Vitamin D is great for those that don’t get out as much anymore. It helps to healthen your skin, your digestive system and helps to keep your emotions balanced too by combating seasonal depression. It will also boost your hormones so normal healthy activity can resume in your body and this can help with sex drive and rejuvenation of tissue such as muscles and tendons.

During the winter your body will be under massive attack from germs and viruses. Boosting your immune system is the single-most helpful thing you can do for yourself.
