Boost Your Immune System
Natural ways to boost your immune system
Our immune system is constantly doing its very best to stop us from getting ill. Really we should be thankful for it more often. And now, more than ever before, our health and immunity are constantly at the forefront of our minds. So while we rely on our immune system to keep us safe during this public health emergency, what can we do easily - and naturally - to give it the boost and strengthening it deserves.
Sleep
At night, when we close our eyes and drift off to sleep, this is when our body recharges its batteries and healing takes place. Without rest, the body cannot function properly and this will lead to feelings of exhaustion and fatigue. When we’re tired, and energy is low, our immune system weakens - making us more susceptible to illness and will have a much harder time fighting it off. Ultimately this means that not getting an adequate amount of sleep can make you ill, and keep you ill for a prolonged period of time.
But sometimes getting a restful night’s sleep can be easier said than done. Especially in this climate of uncertainty when even our dreams are being shaken up by the changes we’ve seen in the past few months. Taking CBD a few hours before you sleep can help restore the body’s natural balance (homeostasis) which helps you drift off and stay asleep - granting a good night’s rest.
Exercise
Keeping active is crucial both for both body and mind. Getting out, being active, and boosting our endorphins will also boost our mood - this can help manage stress, and consequently mitigate the chemical imbalance from stress which attacks our immune system. During lockdown, researchers from the University of Bath published a study that showed how regular exercise can benefit immunity. “In the short term, exercise can help the immune system find and deal with pathogens, and in the long term, regular exercise slows down changes that happen to the immune system with aging, therefore reducing the risk of infections”.

Healthy balanced diet
For the immune system to function properly and effectively it needs to be nourished and nurtured with a variety of energy and nutrients. These can all come from natural sources, a range of fruits and vegetables, nuts, seeds, pulses, dairy, meat, and fish. Sometimes changing your diet can just be a matter of shaking off bad habits and learning some new refreshed recipes. Whereas for others who aren’t sure how to incorporate certain nutrients into their lives and diet, there is a range of natural supplements to lend a helping hand.
Supplements
Finding the right natural supplements makes maintaining a healthy life fit right in with having a busy life. The two don’t always go hand-in-hand, but Reakiro’s new Omega 3 CBD capsules and Immune Support capsules have been formulated to keep you healthy, even when you have to keep busy.
As we enter the autumn months, and the world slowly returns to a sense of normality, be sure to look after yourself and your health by caring for and nurturing your immune system. All of these changes are easy enough to integrate into your life, and remember, Mother Nature is always here to give a helping hand to your therapeutic wellness with CBD.
Conclusion
Nurturing and enhancing our immune system is a paramount consideration, particularly in the present climate where health is of utmost importance. Adequate sleep, a cornerstone of vitality, facilitates our body's healing mechanisms and maintains the immune system's resilience. Coupled with this, regular exercise not only uplifts our mood but also aids the immune system in its battle against stress-induced chemical imbalances.
Remember, the power of CBD from Mother Nature herself can lend a helping hand in your journey towards holistic wellness, ensuring your immune system remains fortified and ready to face the challenges that lie ahead.
