Physical not Social Distancing
- We know washing our hands is key right now, we just have to keep doing it all the time. My kids are even competing to see how long they can actually wash! Find a fun song like this one from Jimmy Fallon or make it a game.
- Everyone is stocking their pantries with shelf stable food which is important but let’s not forget the power and importance of fruits and veggies. To fight infections we need our bodies to be prepared, when we get an infection our body creates “oxidative stress” as a response to fight the infection. Free radicals produced by oxidative stress are what make us feel sick. When the infection is gone our body gets rid of those free radicals and turns down inflammation. The best way to get rid of the remaining free radicals is antioxidants; and fruits and veggies will help keep your immune system healthy! Here is a great visual from Dr. Terry Wahls to try and maintain daily.
- Daily physical activity is crucial for everyone’s sanity, especially right now when stress levels are high!
