How to beat Sickness!!

Moderate aerobic exercise improves immunity.  If you're sick just take it down a few notches.  What's the rule...?  If its above the chest keep training, if its below the chest take a break.  I think that's how it goes.

I hope you're feeling better.

I usually try to get more rest, and wash my hands all the time- especailly at the gym after lifting weights and using cardio equipment.  I try to avoid rubbing my eyes or touching my face while at the gym.  I swear by loading up with lots of water, getting enough vitamin C and zinc helps ward off germs.  Also, green tea is good to drink- lots of antioxidants.  I drink Emer-Gen-C a few times a day- it's loaded with vitamin C, all the B's, and zinc- I swear it helps!

Taking it back a notch cardio-wise really helps, but full rest is also key. I am terrible about "working through" most colds instead of full-out resting. There's just so many other things one can do --like drink tea, take vit C, wash hands, etc-- that I figure I'm doing enough to kick the cold/virus/bug already, so why stop working out?

The moderate level workouts do help keep the immune and ciculatory systems strong, but if the cold lodges in your chest, that's the time to stop, rest, and recover.

Good luck staying healthy, -Sunny

Look in the internet regarding colon cleansing, extra vitamin C, and (spelling) Echenasia is great for the immune system.

I use physillium husks in a smoothie once or twice a day and my health has improved a lot, it keeps the system moving regularily.

Good Luck!!
