This is the most important time for you to not only look after your health but also the health of your loved ones ❤️

You can protect yourself from the coronavirus on the outside by practicing proper hand hygiene and you can also build up your defences from the inside by supporting your immune system. Let me be very clear, having a stronger immune system will NOT prevent you from getting coronavirus (if you were exposed), but it could potentially reduce the severity of the illness and help speed up rate of recovery.

Some of our top suggestions to help support your immune system include:

1. Include more plant-based foods in your diet:

One of the best ways to build a stronger immune systems is to ensure you’re eating plenty of colourful fresh fruits, vegetables and whole grain foods. These are rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, which are importance for maintaining health and well-being.

2. Ensure you are getting enough Vitamin D:

During these uncertain times, we may be faced with extended periods of getting minimal sunlight due to self-enforced social isolation. It’s still important that we try to get some sunshine (where possible). This could simply mean going out into your backyard or balcony for a short period of time, so that we are not missing out on the essential Vitamin D. Research has shown Vitamin D helps support our immune system.

3. Build your gut microbiome:

These play a pivotal role in the body’s immune response to infection and appears to be a key in determining our overall health. To feed your gut microbiome and help it thrive, we need to eat a variety of prebiotic and probiotic foods.
