6 Essential Ways To Boost Your Immunity In Preparation For Coronavirus:

We are in unprecedented times. Now more than ever, the safety and health of our patients is our top priority. We remain committed to providing you with the treatments and protections you need with the utmost care as we are all taking extra precautions.

As the coronavirus spreads, we are hearing about how to reduce exposure and take care of ourselves if we get sick. These are important tips, but we’re not hearing much about how we can boost our immunity so that if we do get exposed to the virus our body can effectively fight back.

Our immune systems are designed to fight off sicknesses and viruses. But unfortunately, the immune system can get worn down by many things typical of a modern life like stress, toxins, lack of excercise and unhealthy eating. This prevents our bodies from effectively fighting off sickness.

With coronavirus continuing to spread, it’s more important than ever to support the immune system. We can do this by making a few key modifications. Here are 6 essential ways to boost your immunity in preparation for coronavirus:

1.  Consume Immunity-Boosting Herbs

A very effective herb that will support and boost your immune system:

REISHI – (Ganoderma Lucidum) (灵芝 Ling Zhi)

As early as 206 BC, Reishi has been used as a tonic to prolong life, prevent aging and boost qi (pronounced che). It came to be called the “Herb of Immortality”. Its extracts contain bioactive triterpenoids, polysaccharides, lipids, and proteins.

Physicians today use it to help strengthen the immune system in those undergoing cancer therapy, especially the effects and have demonstrated safety as a whole-body health tonic.

Beta-glucans (the best-studied polysaccharides) derived from its extracts are potent immunomodulators and can serve as probiotics for gut flora.

74% of Reishi Products are not Authentic!

A new study was recently published by Nature, who releases the most prestigious scientific journals, entitled “Evaluation on quality consistency of Ganoderma lucidum dietary supplements collected in the United States”.

The study was performed in partnership with the US Pharmacopeia (USP), who sets standards for pharmaceuticals, food ingredients and dietary supplement ingredients.

USP concluded by saying “the quality consistency of Ganoderma lucidum dietary supplements in the U.S. market was poor, which should be carefully investigated”.

We have tested and researched several Reishi Supplements on the market and asked these questions:

  • Is it made from the fruiting body of the mushroom?
  • Is it an extract?
  • Is it organic?
  • Does it list measured amounts of beta-glucans?
  • Does it list measured amounts of triterpenes?
  • Does it taste bitter?
  • Does it list starch to show no fillers are added?

Based upon our research we have selected Tera Herbs Super Reishi 27:1 as our preferred Reishi supplement.

You can buy it on Amazon here!

  • Made From 100% Fruiting Body Organic Red Reishi Mushrooms
  • Organic 27:1 Dual Extraction

2. Moxibustion

Boost Immunity With Moxibustion Therapy. During the cold,  winter season, a decreased immunity can mean the difference between you becoming ill and staying healthy.  From a traditional Chinese Medicine point of view, there is no better way to boost immunity than through the use of moxibustion. Studies have shown moxibustion significantly increases the white blood cell count in the body, which is the major component of the immune system. Moxa strengthens the immune system and helps re-balance autoimmune diseases.

3.  Reduce Stress

When we’re stressed out our body produces stress hormones which tax the immune system. So one of the most important ways to boost immunity is to reduce stress. To reduce stress, it’s key to ensure you have life balance.

4.  Sleep Whenever You’re Tired

By not sleeping enough, we increase stress and hurt our immunity. If we’re drinking caffeinated drinks all the time we may not even realize just how tired we really are. Because sleeping is important to rebuilding a struggling immune system, we need to let ourselves sleep as much as we need.

5.  Reduce Inflammation & Stay away from toxins

Sugar, processed meat, vegetable oils, and alcohol tend to be inflammatory foods so they busy the immune system, leaving other problems in your body unaddressed. That’s why it can be really helpful to remove these inflammatory foods if we want a healthy immune system.

Toxins can be devastating for the immune system. For example, mycotoxins from mold are notorious for destroying immunity. Many other toxins seem to have detrimental impact on immunity as well. So try to minimize exposure to chlorinated drinking water, pesticides, aromatic hydrocarbons heavy metals, air pollution, and food additives. Liver detoxification is essential to reduce toxins burden on our body.

6.  Exercise, but not too much

Exercise can be one of the best things to do to boost immunity. But we have to be careful because too much excercise is stressful on the body and can be tough on our immune system. So just keep the other tips in mind: Keep stress low, and if you’re tired, then rest.

By taking these actions, we can help prevent ourselves and our loved ones from suffering significantly from the coronavirus.
