We are constantly in a battle with the elements to avoid those pesky cold and flu bugs that are so skillful in attacking our bodies when our immune systems least expect it. There is no better time than right now to start a healthy lifestyle regiment that will allow us to “circle the wagons” and ward off the unnecessary unpleasant annual routine of battling the multiple array of flu and cold bacteria and viruses that are just waiting to attack our immune systems. BASIC STARTER PROGRAM All FIVE supplements for one special low price! Puritan's Pride Complete One (60 Tablets) - a multivitamin for basic nutritional support Vitamin C & E (100 Softgels) - for immune system and antioxidant support Flaxseed Oil 1000 mg (60 Softgels) - provides essential fatty acids CoQ10 30 mg (50 Softgels) - for heart health Coral Calcium 500 mg (60 Capsules) - to support healthy bones When we let our body’s immune system deteriorate we are just setting ourselves up for a very unpleasant season that tends to imitate a revolving door. We have all known people that always seem to have some type of cold or flu and that is passed on to us. There are several very basic procedures we can follow that will reduce the number of illnesses that attach themselves to us. One of the biggest problems in America today is that we simply do not get enough rest and sleep. We all should strive to get at least 7-8 hours of sleep each day. This period of rest allows your body to restore and reenergize itself.
BETA-CAROTENE 25,000 I.U. Softgels Found in a variety of fruits and vegetables, Beta-Carotene is famous for giving carrots a rich orange color. This provitamin A is part of the Carotenoid family and readily converts to Vitamin A in the system when needed. Beta Carotene is also an immune system enhancer and antioxidant. Also we need to be sure and drink plenty of water on a consistent daily basis to insure we do not dehydrate. We should all strive to drink at least 40-60 Oz of water each day and more if we can. Water is the lifeblood of life and is essential in the effort to insure a healthy immune system. It is a well know fact that the human body can survive 20-30 days without food but only 3-4 days without water. Another leading cause of depletion of our immune systems is a lack of physical exercise. We live in a society in America today that is gives a “fast paced life” a new meaning. From the time we get up in the morning until we go to bed at night it seems that Americans are in a furious rush to get somewhere and get something done that just can’t wait. Combine this hectic fast paced lifestyle and the lack of exercise complicated by our atrocious eating habits and it becomes painfully obvious why we are in a constant struggle to keep a healthy immune system. Because of the competitive nature of Americans and in our effort to “keep up with the Jones’s” we have created a very stressful environment which contributes to the obesity problem in this country.
Stress is very detrimental to our health and leads to all types of disorders including high blood pressure, anxiety, obesity and a host of other ailments too numerous to mention here. Stress attacks our immune systems and lowers our quality of life. What began decades ago with the convenience of fast food has turned into a national obesity crisis which tends to adversely affect our immune systems. If this trend continues will undoubtedly lead to a national health emergency unlike anything we have seen. We need to understand that it is not the fault of the fast food industry that we have arrived at this juncture. We all have to accept responsibility to improve our lifestyle that will result in an enhanced immune system. To summarize we need to implement the following changes in our daily routine.
