We all know that maintaining a healthy immune system is the best anti-flu action plan, but we tend to have these bad habits that thwart our immunity’s attempts to keep us flu fit. Take sleep, for instance. We work hard and into the night to the point of to gettingg enough of that sacred downtime. And then boom! We’re sick..and we wonder, “Why is this happening to me?!” Well, Sedatif PC says fatigue is what happened. Fatigue lowers your resistance to those microscopic, flu-causing baddies so to ward off the cold or flu, get a good night’s rest…every night.

So now that we know that we have bad habits that can negatively affect our infection-fighting immune systems, here’ are a few more Sedatif PC says we can drop to help it along.

Retardo those carbos – not only will they make you put on weight, but they also can lower your resistance.

In addition to lightening the “bad habit load,” Sedatif PC also suggests a couple of things we can add to our lifestyle for an immuno-boost. A little help goes a long way during these winter months, so don’t be afraid to call on supplements for a much-needed pick me up. Sedatif PC suggests popping some Vitamin C, Zinc, Echinacea and Ginseng or getting your annual flu vaccine. And last, but never least…water.
