This week has been a challenge. Each day has brought more tiredness and less energy. The voice is even escaping me. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT So in order to keep you at arm's length and healthy, let's jam out about how to stay strong when you feel weak. Most of us know how important these vitamins are when it comes to the immune system. Vitamin C Vitamin D Vitamin E However, there are some you haven't even talked about. The K.I.S.S. ~ Strengthen your immune system! Zinc: It's an essential mineral for a healthy immune system as it supports cellular activity, healing wounds, and normal growth. Zinc also acts as an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Foods high in zinc: eggs, red meat (grass-fed beef or lamb), chickpeas, cashews, almonds, hemp seeds, and pumpkin seeds, plus more. Selenium: It's a necessary mineral to fight seasonal sickness. It also helps to counteract the aging of the immune system. So as you get wiser, you immune system stays a little younger. Brazil nuts are one of the richest sources of selenium. You don't need a ton a day (like 2-3). Eggs, salmon, beef, and turkey including sunflower seeds, brown rice, mushrooms, and spinach. Vitamin A: This vitamin is special! It packs a punch for an incredible immune system. It keeps your mucous membranes that cover internal organs strong so infection is kept out. Vitamin A is also important for proper functioning of immune cells and for the generation of antibody responses to specific antigens. Eggs, meat, fish, and organs like liver (preformed vitamin A). Your body can use it as it. Eat colorful vegetables (deep green, yellow, and orange). Kale, spinach, carrots, and sweet potatoes. These plant-based sources contain provitamin A carotenoids,(including beta-carotene). Your body has to break this down to be utilized. Food is medicine. But one thing we haven't talked about is sleep. We are not getting enough rest, and that's when our immune system comes crashing down on us. I encourage you to make sleep and rest a priority not just for you, but for the family. Do what it takes for all to understand how much sleep plays a role in your health. You don't have to settle for busyness! You have permission to slow down! To strengthen your immune system, it's to SLOW yourself down.
