How to Prevent Colds and Flu Naturally
‘Catching’ and suffering from cold and flu viruses and bugs is not inevitable, even in winter. It is so common in modern urban environments because most of us have very weak immune systems due to lifestyles that are based around low nutrient food, toxic overload, lack of rest and high stress. If your immune system is strong then it naturally fights off most infections and even if those around you fall ill you can remain unaffected. Here are some tips on how to prevent colds and flu naturally.
Why Go Natural?
Some of the chemicals in pharmaceutical medicines are potentially damaging and best avoided. Most pharmaceutical drugs for colds and flu work by suppressing symptoms rather than treating the cause, and foster the ‘soldier on’ mentality. This combination often causes the true underlying health issue to become worse in the long run. Flu vaccines contain some concerning ingredients as well and they are only good for helping to prevent certain virus strains. They are not 100% effective and if your immune system is already weak when you have a flu vaccination then the vaccine will force your tired immune system to fight hard against the injected virus and become even more depleted. Pharmaceutical drugs and vaccines provide an easy, quick-fix option, but we need to ask ourselves what the long-term impact is on our health of exposing ourselves to these chemicals and are there other options which are just as effective and simultaneously strengthen our bodies. The answer to the latter question is a definite yes.
How to Prevent Colds and Flu Naturally
1. Focus on Prevention
Strengthen your immune system and your mindset. Understand that if your immune system is robust it is highly likely that it will defend your body from any cold and flu bacteria and viruses before they have a chance to take hold. Sometimes, the susceptibility is in our mind. If you think, believe or fear that you will catch every bug that is going around, then it is highly likely that you will.
