4 simple ways to cope with Stress

CFAgbata — Wed, 17 Aug 2011 15:20:25 +0000

Do you know how to cope with Stress? (Negative) Stress can kill silently and because it is a silent killer, you may not be aware of the consequences of allowing (negative) stress to lurk around for too long. It is therefore important that you learn to cope with stress. Sometime in 2010, I wrote an article titled coping with stress, I have chosen to write about stress again because some folks I know are not managing stress properly.

Coping with Stress

I strongly believe that God Almighty designed life in such a way that humans will face stressful situations. For instance, a woman goes through stress during pregnancy and after child birth or a man faces stress in his daily activities in order to put food on his family’s table and so on…..

So why am I writing about how to cope with stress?

The answer is simple, despite the fact that God designed life this way, what makes all the difference is how you manage your life situations and opportunities. Simply put, how you cope with Stress.

Stress management is effective when a person uses strategies to cope with or alter stressful situations.- Wikipedia

Here are 4 Simple Ways to cope with Stress

1. Discover your passion

If you don’t know your passion in life then it would not be easy to cope with stress. Are you present working as a banker when you passion is teaching? Are you presently in a traditional business (i.e. having an office outside your home) when you are someone who enjoys working from the house?

Personally, I enjoy marketing (by the way we all market directly or indirectly) and I have done it for many years but tell you the truth I regret not starting a blog much earlier when my long time friend Dipo Tepede started his in 2005 while we were both working for Globacom, this is because I also have passion for writing and sharing my thoughts/experiences. It took me a while to realize I needed to start writing and today, I am doing both (writing and marketing) successfully. Can you believe that writing is one of the ways I cope with stress?

Make a commitment to discover your passion because it will help you properly cope with stress and if you don’t know how, then simply take a closer look at my coaching services.

2. Stay Focused

Stop jumping from job to job or from business to business. Stay focused. Honestly, I am what you would call a serial entrepreneur because in the last decade alone I have gone into well over 15 businesses and for the most part, I have crashed out. But in 2009, I made a commitment to stay focused and the result has been much lower levels of stress.

I reached that decision because I am yet to see any top achiever in life that lacked focus. Apple Inc. remains one of the most capitalized companies in the world and that is because Steve Jobs focused on his dream and passion. A lot of times we put our self under stress which later turns out negative because we jump from the ‘next big thing’ to ‘the other next big thing’.

3. Eat Well and drink plenty of water

You’ve got to make it a point of duty to eat well and drink plenty of water. I know people who drink less than one glass of water a day, but they drink one or more bottles of soft drinks daily. Any time the opportunity arises, I tell such people that they are shortening their life span and invariably making themselves unhappy. Find out what excessive intake of refined sugar does to the body, not much good I tell you. Let me point you to two articles on the harmful effects of sugar;

146 Reasons Why Sugar Is Ruining Your Health by Nancy Appleton, Ph.D.
How Sugar Can Ruin Your Life by Vin Miller

While I am happy that the fast food industry is employing millions of people worldwide, I am saddened because they have contributed to the deaths of many who thought that fast food is fun and enjoyment, as far as am concerned Fast Food is junk! The worst home cooked meal is better than the best fast food.

Eating well will help you to properly cope with stress.

4. Laugh, Laugh and Laugh.

Laughter is music to the soul. Learn to laugh even when there is no need to. Incase, you didn’t know as a child you laughed over a 100 times a day but as your grew older, the number of times reduced. For some adults today, they hardly even remember to laugh, life has become a bore and some end up commiting suicide.

Laughter is the best medicine.

Here are 5 questions to answer if you want to use laughter as a strategy to cope with stress;

What can others say about your sense of humour?
Can you think and act funny?
How do you react to ordinary situations?
Can you keep a tab of how many times you get to laugh a day?
Can you look at the mirror and laugh at yourself?

Stress kills, most especially when it is negative, so make it a point of duty to avoid it by all means. Medical practitioners often say, that diseases easily overcome our bodies when we allow negative stress get the better of us.

There are many more ways to cope with stress, find out what works best for you and take action.

Do you have better ideas on how people can cope with stress?

Ingredients in Natureline Solutions FIX Energy Tea

1. Matcha (Camellia sinensis)

The greatest of green teas with 137 times the antioxidants of regular green tea. Celebrated for hundreds of years for its unique and abundant nutritional properties. Steeped in the rich tradition of the zen buddhist ceremonies of Japan. Ground into a fine, emerald-green powder, matcha is whisked with water to create a unique, beautiful and flavorful drink.

Raises energy.
Elevates mood.
Calms nerves.

70x the antioxidants of orange juice and 9x the beta-carotene of spinach!

Antioxidants are found in many foods including fruits and vegetables. There are many types of antioxidants, however, the class known as catechins are only found in green tea, and these may be the most potent of all. And of the catechins, EGCG (epicgallocatechin gallate) is the catechin with broadest and most potent properties. Sixty percent of the catechin content of matcha is EGCG.

2. Blueberry (Vaccinium cyanococcus)

Rich in vitamins A, C, E and beta-carotene as well as rich in the minerals potassium, manganese and magnesium. Blueberries provide antioxidants anthocyanins, chlorogenic acid, pterostilbene, ellagic acid as well as catechins and resveratrol.

3. Cranberry (Vaccinium oxycoccos)

In study after study, cranberries are coming out at or near the top of the antioxidant heap. They are particularly rich in polyphenols, and have a lot of other helpful phytochemicals as well.

4. Grape Seed Extract (Vitis vinifera)

Source of bioflavonoids. Bioflavonoids are powerful antioxidants, helping the body to fight the damaging and aging effects of free radicals.

5. Black Currant (Ribes nigrum)

High antioxidant and vitamin content. In particular, they’re very rich in Vitamin C. Black currants also contain several rare nutrients, like GLA (Gamma Linoleic Acid, Omega-6 essential fatty acid) and MAOI (Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors).

6. Pomegranate (Punica granatum)

Contains very high in punicalagin and anthocyanin content. Punicalagin is an extremely potent antioxidant found to be responsible for the fruit’s superior health benefits. They are also a good source of vitamin B (riboflavin, thiamin and niacin), vitamin C, calcium and phosphorus.

7. Apple Pectin (Malus domestica heteropolysaccharide)

A dietary fiber, apple pectin is helpful in maintaining good digestive health. Researchers at the University of California, Davis, found that apple pectin also acts as an antioxidant against the damaging portion of cholesterol in the blood stream.

8. Red Korean Ginseng (Panax ginseng)

Red ginseng contains ginsenosides and saponins as active ingredients. In addition to ginsenosides, red ginseng also contains glycans (panaxans), polysaccharide fraction DPG-3-2, peptides, maltol, B vitamins, flavonoids, and volatile oil.

9. Eleuthero (Eleutherococcus senticosus)

A species of small, woody shrub in the family Araliaceae native to Northeastern Asia. In Chinese medicine it is known as “ci wu jia”. Research has shown that eleuthero improves the use of oxygen by the exercising muscle. This means that a person is able to maintain aerobic exercise longer and recover from workouts more quickly.

10. Açaí Berry (Euterpe oleracea)

Açaí berry grows in the Amazon river regions of South America. Native people of that area used the Açaí berries as a source of nutrition but also as a source for healing sicknesses and in topical applications as well. Açaí berry was tested for its ORAC value and was found to be astonishing.

11. Goji Berry (Lycium chinense)

Used for 6,000 years by herbalists in China, Tibet and India to to protect the liver, help eyesight, improve sexual function and fertility, strengthen the legs, boost immune function, improve circulation and promote longevity. It is rich in antioxidants, particularly carotenoids such as beta-carotene and zeaxanthin. Research has also shown that Goji berry is a great source of polysaccharides that are necessary for immune system function.

12. Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana)

For centuries, those in Southeast Asia have revered the mangosteen, both for its flavor and the suggestion that it promotes good health.

13. Yerba Mate (Ilex paraguariensis)

A species of holly (family Aquifoliaceae) native to subtropical South America in northeastern Argentina, Bolivia, Paraguay and southern Brazil. The three xanthines present in mate have been shown to have a relaxing effect on smooth muscle tissue, and a stimulating effect on myocardial (heart) tissue. Mate also contains elements such as potassium, magnesium and manganese.

14. Alfalfa (Medicago sativa)

A great source of vitamins A, D, E and K and also provides significant amounts of calcium, magnesium, phosphorous, and potassium. It contains more protein than most plants.

15. Beet Extract (Beta vulgaris)

Research has shown many health benefits for beets. However, one of the most significant is to improve blood circulation.

16. Rooibos (Aspalathus linearis)

Grown only in a small area in the region of the Western Cape province of South Africa. It has potent antioxidant, immune-modulating and chemopreventive effects.

17. Stevia (Stevia rebaudiana)

Commonly known as “sweet leaf”, sweet leaf, sugar leaf, or simply stevia, is widely grown for its sweet leaves.

18. Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid or L-ascorbate)

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient for humans and certain other animal species, in which it functions as a vitamin.

All these ingredients have great nutritional benefits and would do your body a whole lot of good. Don’t take my word for it, do your research. Feel free to contact me anytime!

5 Recommended Tips to Prepare for a Greener Lifestyle

A Guest Writer — Mon, 11 Jul 2011 18:40:08 +0000

This is a guest post by Debra Wilson. To leave a guest post on this blog, please check out our guest blogging guidelines.

These tips will help you lead a green and more healthy lifestyle.

Specific changes in behaviour have to be made to make the switch from an all-consumptive lifestyle to a leaner and greener one. From the types of products you use, to the stores you frequent, they make a difference in giving you a healthier lifestyle and allowing you to leave a smaller carbon footprint. Start your new, green, healthy lifestyle off with a bang by purchasing products to help you live more naturally in every aspect of your life.

1. Local food

A home grown garden would be the best choice for a green lifestyle, but many who work the 9 to 5 grind may not have the time or resources to grow their own produce. You can still eat green however, buy purchasing locally grown food. Check out local harvest.com for famers who sell organic produce in your area. If you don’t think organic or locally grown food is for good for you, guess again. Here are a few reasons why you should incorporate locally grown food in your lifestyle:

Looks better, tastes better and is better for you. Locally grown food will be picked at the height of ripeness, making your food taste and look better. Also organic food decreases the amount of pesticides and chemicals you are putting in your body.
Purchasing local food builds and supports families and communities. When you buy direct from a farmer or gardener you are helping to support the common network of local famers in your area as well as specific families.
It preserves land, wildlife and protects the environment. A properly run farm or garden can boost the eco-system, provide nutrients to soil and decrease the amount of carbon in the atmosphere.

2. Home Products

Beef up your home with green living products to help you save money and reduce that ever growing imprint. Simple changes can help you keep your home at a comfortable climate while allowing you to conserve on energy. Consider a few of these home preservation options to live green;

Invest in eaves and gutters. Allow the rain to fall on the roof and eaves and into the drain through the gutters to extend the life of your siding and paint. Save the rainwater to use on garden plants.
Insulate your home. Got a drafty window or door letting in all the hot or cold air? Caulk it up or replace the window. Leaky openings can drain energy fast, causing your monthly bill to spike. Additionally, use drapery and curtains to block out the sun or trap in the heat in severe climates.
Add some circulation. Ceiling fans, multiple vents or even a whole-house attic fan allows you to get the most from your energy resources. Make sure you have enough to ventilate and circulate the air you are heating or cooling.

3. Recycle Centre

Become your own recycling centre. Instead of throwing it away, get yourself some recycled plastic bins and set up your own green, recycling centre in the garage. Check out Earth911.com to find a recycling plant to dispose of your sorted trash. More than just cardboard boxes and plastic bags can be recycled. Read the list below for household items that are recyclable;

Aerosol cans and fire extinguishers
Batteries
Books
Clothes
Carpeting
Cell phones, computers and other electronics
Fluorescent light bulbs
Makeup
Metal cans, dishes, flatware
Prescription drugs (Check out thestarfish-project.org on how to recycle medications)
Paint
Shoes

4. Natural Beauty

Conserve water, buy organic products or use some home-made remedies to wash your hair and clean your skin the natural way. Turn your bathroom into a haven of clean green with these products and ideas.

Conserve water with a low-flow shower head. EcoFlow (waterpikecoflow.com) shower heads provides the same coverage but uses less water. Also, spend less time in the shower.
Use organic products like, Burts Bees, Aveda or Organix to cut down on your use of synthetic made products.
Go completely natural:

Beat a couple of raw eggs together, massage through the hair and let sit for 15 minutes before washing. Hair will become stronger and shinier.
Make a mask using cooked oatmeal, ripe avocado or honey. Your skin will glow and look smoother.
Take vitamin E supplements. This will help you combat acne and give you soft and supple skin. Use these supplements instead of synthetic washes and unnatural cleansers.

5. Cleaning Supplies

Make your house shine with organic or natural cleaning products. By using natural cleaning products you will be contributing to a healthier and safer living environment by reducing the amount of chemical and unnatural substances being spread throughout the atmosphere. Start your cleaning frenzy with these ideas:

Baking soda – Use it to scour, deodorize and freshen hard surfaces and clothing.
Lemon – Place a couple drops of the essential oil in a dish to deodorize a room. Put a few slices down the garbage disposal to freshen the scent of the kitchen.
White vinegar – Dilute this with water and use it cut wash hardwood and linoleum floors, cut grease on stovetops and clean mirrors and bathrooms.
Alcohol – Use 100 proof to disinfect surfaces.

My thoughts on the Lagos State third Climate Change Summit 2011

CFAgbata — Sat, 19 Feb 2011 16:36:00 +0000

My thoughts in the just concluded Lagos State Climate Change Summit

I was fortunate to be part of the 3rd Lagos State Climate Change Summit 2011 organised by the Lagos State Ministry of Environment, and I must confess it was a thrilling experience. It only increased my respect and admiration for the man steering the affairs of Lagos State, His Excellency, Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola SAN, one of the shinning stars in today’s utter darkness.

At the 3rd Lagos State climate change summit 2011

Keynote speaker at the Lagos State Climate Change Summit was Dr. Kenny Tan (Asia’s Al Gore) and host of others.

Dr. Kenny Tan said that climate change has created increased opportunities for weather risk transfer and financial innovation for individuals and businesses from across the world.

Other speakers also presented their papers and at the end a communique was read to the hearing of all attendees. Click here to view some of the photographs of the Lagos State Climate Change Summit.

The 3rd Lagos State climate change summit was well organised and attended international summit that brought together scholars, environmental advocates and companies from Nigeria and other parts of the world. The theme of the summit was “Charting a Road Map for Combating Climate Change in Nigeria”.

On a personal note, I’ll conclude that the Lagos State Government has performed the most when it comes to creating awareness on climate change and actually implementing strategies that will ensure reduction of it’s impact to the environment, and for this reason I give kudos the Governor of the state and folks at the Lagos State Ministry of environment.

Would you attend the next Lagos State Climate Change Summit?

5 Ways to Get Creative with Saving Energy

A Guest Writer — Thu, 27 Jan 2011 19:58:22 +0000

The need to save energy in our world today cannot be overemphasized.

You’ve likely done all the normal stuff to cut back on energy consumption in your home: you set the thermostat on a timer, you’ve replaced your old appliances with energy-saving options, and you use the conservation settings on appliances and electronics whenever possible. You’ve even purchased vouchers for green energy. All of these are great steps towards ensuring a greener planet for the generations of tomorrow. And yet, you could be doing more. It’s time to get creative with your strategy for cutting your energy consumption, and here are a few things you may not have considered.

1. Check for leaks and insulate.

Most people don’t even know that you can have an energy audit performed on your home. Utility providers often supply such services, although you can also opt for independent companies. A technician simply combs through your house checking for leaks and then gives you a report. Once you have this in hand, you know exactly where to add sealant, weather-stripping, and insulation to ensure that the bought air isn’t getting out.

2. Plant strategically.

You might not think your garden has a lot to do with the energy you use in your home, but if you live in an environment that has weather extremes, it could make a world of difference. By planting large trees around your home, you can introduce a system of shade that will keep your house cooler in the summer and a wind-break to stop chilly air from assaulting your home in the winter. This will, in turn, cut your energy consumption during the highest-usage times of year.

3. Light smart

You’ve probably heard of CFLs (compact fluorescent lights). They use a fraction of the energy of incandescent bulbs and last 10 times as long. But you may not have heard of LEDs (light emitting diodes), which are even more efficient and longer lasting. And while there are certainly ways to make the light you use less wasteful, you’ll do even better to stop using it. In short, try to use as much natural light as possible. If you’re space is poorly planned and doesn’t get a lot of daylight, install mirrors to bounce the light you do enjoy. And think about installing fiber-optic sunlight transmission devices in areas with low or no light. They actually bring outside sunlight directly into your home.

4. Turn off devices (and minimize charging).

People don’t tend to realize exactly how much energy is lost to phantom drain (devices that are plugged in continue to draw energy even when powered off). So make an effort to unplug electronics when they’re not in use (hook several up to a power strip so you only have to unplug one cord). And when it comes to charging your cell phone, iPod, or other electronic devices, make sure to unplug them once they’re charged to stop wasteful energy usage and conserve the life of your batteries.

5. Go geothermal.

Solar, wind, and water power offer great sources of alternative energy, but if you want to heat and cool your home with maximum efficiency and minimal electricity, you should look into geothermal heating and air conditioning. By using the heat in the Earth itself, you can have abundant temperature control possibilities in a green energy package.

Climate Change affects us all, including you!

CFAgbata — Sat, 11 Dec 2010 15:07:45 +0000

In my beloved country Nigeria, Climate Change is rarely an issue mainly because of the level of poverty.

Never has the human race been so threatened by the challenges of a fast-changing climate than in the 21st century. That challenge seems to confound many people with the consequences of the activities of man on earth. There has been ever-rising temperature, without any sign of abating, which experts have linked to depletion of the ozone layer, no thanks to emission of dangerous chemicals into the atmosphere, heavy flooding unrivalled in the history of mankind; the ever-expanding desert and the threat of ocean surge.

There is a general apathy when it comes to issues of Climate Change, save for a few knowledgeable private individuals and government officials it is almost a none issue. Personally, I believe that man is in trouble if we don’t wake up to reality that Climate Change is real, we can feel it more than ever before – can you imagine the rains still pouring in December? If you reside in Lagos, then you don’t know what is called Ozone depletion, take a trip to the Northern part of Nigeria i.e. Maiduguri and feel the sun there. It is killing! The Lagos state government says that her tree planting exercise has been scientifically noted to be very useful in the fight against global warming, since it absorbs carbon-dioxide in the atmosphere and replenish the air with oxygen.

Recently, Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola said alluded to the fact that climate change had been linked to increase in the number of female children delivered in the tropics, just as it has also led to miscarriages and low sperm. He also noted that the global warming has impacted on the diseases we had to contend with adding that there is a need for urgent action. Click here to read more about his speech at this year’s world environment day.

Can you believe his words? In a highly spiritual country like Nigeria the devil is usually blamed for virtually everything even if we are acting ignorantly in a particular situation. Would you ever believe that the effect of climate change may be the result of your wife’s miscarriage or that nagging headache that never stops or female only births? Honestly, even though I am an advocate for climate change, I find these words hard to believe but then they are not just assertions but assertions backed by research.

These questions if answered will help you conclude if Climate Change is real or not;

Why is it getting hotter these days?
What is the cause of the rising sea levels in some parts of Nigeria i.e. Lagos and Bayelsa States?
Why is the Eastern part of Nigeria suffering the negative effects from erosion?
Have you ever been to the North to see the havoc desertification is wreaking?

Maybe you don’t know this; the world is threatened by Climate change and Nigeria is not left out.

5 roles you can play to curb the effects of Climate Change;

Conserve energy – switch off electrical appliances when not in use.
Conserve water – don’t waste water… use Bi-Tron Waterless car wash. You may not know but experts have warned that the struggle to harness water resources could provoke third world war. Read this article about 10 American cities with water shortages
Change to energy smart bulbs and electrical appliances.
Plant flowers or trees around you.
Use public transportation more often.
Install Bi-Tron Tyre Safety Solution. This will help reduce the amount of Tyres that end up in landfills. Tyres are made from oil.

Sincerely, I pray this December is different because I can’t forget in a hurry how Asian Tsunami/Tiger Waves swept the Asian continent in December 2004, quite a horrible experience.

We all have a role to play in this fight against global warming and curbing climate change. I am making an impact by using and recommending the environmentally friendly products of Natureline Solutions.

4 ways to increase your energy level

CFAgbata — Mon, 09 Aug 2010 20:20:37 +0000

All humans irrespective of how healthy they are, will still experience fatigue every now and then. There are many causes of this fatigue which can deplete your energy, but there are also tons of ways to ensure that you regain the lost energy . Some methods have quick effects on the body while others may take time for the average person to feel energized.

increase your energy level

4 simple ways to increase your energy level

1. A good night sleep is essential to everyone and lack of adequate rest is a huge energy drainer aside from working hard. As a matter of fact, no amount of sleep during the day can compare to the benefits of sleeping on time at night. So understand you body and give it the rest it deserves.

2. Daily exercises would not only make you remain in shape but also let you feel energized after each session. This is because the body burns fat and at the same time exercising makes you sweat and enhances the blood flow.

3. Apart from exercising, another effective way to increase your energy level is the daily intake of supplements. There are different supplement and medicines available in the market nowadays that gives a person extra strength but only a few is really worth recommending. Why? Simply because not all supplements are manufactured with the highest quality. Nevertheless, you should make it a point duty to find and use a quality supplement product preferably Nature Made ones.

4. Finally, a good environment can also help, so surround yourself with things that can reduce your stress level (i.e. having live plants in your house) and you will always feel pretty energized.

All the above are good ways to increase your energy level but I recommend you take FIX Tea, 100% Natural Energy Drink – you can go ahead and try the product to see for yourself.

Keep your body energized! Stay energized!!!

Coping with Stress

CFAgbata — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 19:28:48 +0000

How are you coping with stress in your life?

I have been stressed lately and I thought it wise sharing some tips that have helped me through this period. Sometimes, I wonder if it is possible to completely avoid stress? What will life be without stress? I think limited stress is not entirely bad, it becomes negative when you allow it disturb your thought processes or determine your attitude.

Coping with Stress Strategies

In fact, I have used them time and again and just recently they worked very well. This might help you as well, just read on.

Do what you love. Question is do you love what you currently do? Are you stuck in a dead end job? This might be a great source of stress
Coping with Stress

that usually turns negative. Beware of your own warning signs. This could just be a sudden feeling of anxiety.

Find out what makes you stressed, when you do, avoid them entirely. This is something you may not be able to avoid completely but you can reduce it drastically i.e. if you hate heavy traffic, avoid it entirely but sometimes you can’t avoid it especially when you have an appointment to catch up.

When I am stresses I avoid falling into the trap of not eating properly or drinking alcohol excessively, because I am aware that sometimes we do these things in excess because of stress, so what I rather do is;

Drink plenty of water. I mean plenty of water, it will help rehydrate your body and make you more relaxed.

If you must eat when stressed then eat complex carbohydrates rather than refined ones. This will really help you cope with mood swings.

Also, eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables and keep sugar and salt intake low.

Strive to keep caffeine consumption to the minimum.

Avoid nicotine or any other self prescribed drug because there is a tendency of abuse especially in a stressed states.

Do something that is creative and helps you relax, i.e. dance, go see a movie, listen to some music, meditate, or do exercises.

Master proper time management – this is a major cause of stress and it usually gets you worked if you are not careful.

A few years ago, I attended a stress management training and that is where I learnt most of what I have shared here. So I encourage you to find one and attend or carry out a research on the internet. But the effect of a live event is usually tremendous, so make all efforts to attend one.

Never be afraid to ask for help when you need it. Most times we assume that the worse will happen, but the worse is usually going to be a NO and that will never make the heavens fall, so go on and ask for help – this is one simple step that will keep you sane irrespective of the stress you are faced with.

The simple strategies outlined above works and will truly help you cope with stress. But, remember this, you cannot completely eliminate stress, so work hard to manage it and you will lead a much happier life.

Negative Stress Kills!

Fortunately, there is a way to help immune system fights off viruses and bacteria that is causing all symptoms and health condition.

Before we discuss the different ways on how to possibly help the body’s immune defense system to fight, it is important that everyone should appreciate how the immune system works as well as the complexity of the system.

If you still remember your science101 then you know that the first defense or the one that acts as protector of the body is the skin. Next to skin is the thymus gland, it is the one that tells the body which viruses are good and bad. Lymph nodes are the third defense and this is where the viruses are fought, and if your body’s effort is successful, then the infection will no longer spread to other parts of the body.

The liver is another defender of the body and also the one that could make a person really suffer should it fail to function properly. Bone marrow is also important and the fact that the body’s immune cells begin here makes it vital. Last but not the least is the spleen, this is the place where all blood is cleaned or filtered and where bacteria is also destroyed.

Diet

A proper diet always helps the body. By simply staying away from food that is not healthy, you have helped in your body in many regards. Drinking 8 glasses of water, taking vitamins and supplements that can flush out toxins are definitely recommended – I suggest you try out FIX Energy Tea.

Everyone needs to rest adequately because this is the only time the body heals itself and recover from the stress of daily life. So sleep on time and avoid staying too late everyday so as to help your body function optimally.

In case you have never knew, avoiding negative stressors can also help immune system become even stronger.

Help your immune system in anyway you can and you will be amazed at the results.
