Anyone else have FLU A in their house?
It's been a week... my little one came down with Flu A last weekend and had a brutal fever for 3 straight days - like 105... not fun. She's doing great and back at school but I thought I would drop some tips in here about what we are taking to keep the rest of the house healthy.
It should go without saying that the basics you can do stay healthy during the VIRAL season are:
1 - Get sleep - 7-8 hours a night
2 - Get sunlight, especially in the morning
3 - Move your body - go for walks, get out in the fresh air and nature
4 - Eat clean, healthy, Whole Foods packed with vitamins and nutrients - and avoid processed, high sugar foods
5 - Hydrate with Salt - we will love LMNT
6 - Find calm to manage stress - I did more Yoga this week and made sure to find at least 5- 10 minutes each day for meditation. I also listen to the Calm app at night before bed and did daily journaling.
Note that all of the above are FREE. They cost you nothing with maybe the exception of #4 but we all have to eat and you should be eating as clean as possible.
Daily Immune Support:
Vitamin C
Vitamin D3 with K1 and K2 (take with fat at a meal)
Zinc
Black Seed Oil
Oregano Oil
Lysine - just added this based on a recommendation.
Elderberry
If there's a cough in the house, I will add in:
Quercetin
Curcumin
Melatonin at night (3mg at most)
If you can, I highly recommend getting in a few sauna sessions - check out RXFit in Port or Boost in Roslyn or find one near you. Sauna is a great way to detox.
Community member, just shared with me this blog post from Dr. Mark Hyman... we seem to be on the same page although he also adds in a few others such as Vitamin A, Tartary Buckwheat and Medicinal Mushrooms - we have something called Shii which I have also been taking.
What did I miss? Anyone have anything to add?
