Winter Immunity Boost
Strengthen your immunity for the winter cold and flu season. There are many natural remedies that are wonderful for strengthening the immunity. Elderberry syrup is one of my favorite wintertime tonics for helping to fight off winter bugs. Medicinal mushroom formulas containing mushrooms such as reishi, cordyceps, chaga, shitake and others are also a great way to nourish your immune system and get through the flu season without succumbing to all the germs flying around. Simply eating 2 raw cloves of garlic a day is also another great way to fight off the bugs, while also enjoying garlic’s cardiovascular benefits. These are three all natural ways to boost your immunity for the winter season.
There are also a lot of great herbal remedies to help fight a cold once you feel one coming on, or to lessen the severity and duration of symptoms. I always reach for some herbal anti-virals, such as oregano oil, goldenseal, garlic, olive leaf or grapefruit seed extract. There are some wonderful formulas that combine herbal anti-virals and other supportive herbs which act directly to lessen symptoms. What I love about the natural approach is that these remedies don’t work against your bodies natural disease fighting mechanisms, they work WITH them.
