Are you sick and tired of getting sick all the time?
When seasons change, it is not uncommon for some people to be hit once or twice with a viral or bacterial infection like the cold or flu.
However, when feeling under the weather becomes a frequent occurrence (ie. monthly), or it takes you a prolonged length of time to recover (more than 5-7 days), it may be a sign that the your immune system (your body’s natural defenses) is weakened and compromised, which leaves you even more vulnerable to future infections!
- Frequent colds & flus (treatment & prevention)
- Seasonal allergies
- Asthma
- Sinusitis
- Urinary tract infections
- Ear, nose & throat infections
- Autoimmune conditions
(ie. Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, Rheumatoid arthritis, Ulcerative colitis, Lupus, etc.)
What is causing my immune system to be weak?
- Stress (Adrenal gland imbalances)
- High sugar intake
- Food sensitivities
- Poor diet
- Nutrient deficiencies (ie. zinc, B vitamins, etc.)
- Gut bacteria imbalances
- Low stomach acid
