Do this if you feel sick

If you start to feel sick this winter, it is imperative that you nip it in the butt before it fully takes over your body. These are a few things I do at the onset of a sickness.

Organ meats are rich and vitamins and minerals, including vitamin A, vitamin B, 12, CoQ10, iron, and selenium. These will all help boost your immune system and fight off any bacteria or virus.

Hydration is key for the body to function properly and by adding lemon, you are gently and naturally detoxifying any foreign matters.

L-lysine is a building block for protein in the body. It is also great for our immunity because it is an amino acid.

... Read moreWhen winter strikes, it's crucial to act quickly if you feel under the weather. Incorporating nutrient-dense organ meats into your diet can significantly bolster your immune response. Rich in vitamins A, B12, CoQ10, iron, and selenium, these superfoods can counteract pathogens effectively. Staying hydrated with lemon-infused water not only detoxifies but also supports overall body function. Lemons offer vitamin C, enhancing immunity and providing antioxidants. Additionally, L-lysine, an essential amino acid which the body cannot produce, can be supplemented to aid recovery, boosting protein synthesis crucial for immune function. Proactive measures such as these can minimize illness duration and severity, ensuring a healthier winter season.
