Now more than ever we need to improve our health because contrary to “popular” belief, #ourimmunesystemsendpandemics Here are some simple things you can begin doing today to ensure yours is working at peak performance. ✨Exercise every day, even if it is just a walk outside. ✨ Get plenty of vitamin D from the sun as well as a daily supplement ✨ Get at least 8 hours of sleep a night ✨ Get adjusted! Several clinical studies have proven the positive effects adjustments have on your immune system, including a three year study showing regular chiropractic care can result in a 200% improvement in immune response competency (Studies linked here). ✨Take a daily multivitamin ✨Stress less! Try yoga, meditation, therapy, whatever you need to develop good coping methods when under stress. The stress hormone corticosteroid can suppress the effectiveness of the immune system making it harder for you to fight off viruses 🦠 and has many negative physical effects on your body as well ✨Reduce sugar and dairy from your diet. Not only will this help you lose a few pounds but bacteria and viruses thrive on sugar ✨Additional supplements/oils to add to your daily routine, especially during winter months or if you feel a cold coming on. We proudly sell both Standard Process Supplements and Rocky Mountain Oils in the office. If you ever need to discuss what options are best for you/your family or would like to place an order of something we do not have in stock, Dr. Clugston will gladly discuss at your next appointment.
