Goodness knows what the right multiplier is, as our governments are not good at counting those who recover.<\/p><p>Then there are all these asymptomatic people whose immune system was so good they didn\u2019t even know they had had it.

Currently your main ally against this virus is your immune system.<\/p><p>We need to take care of our immune systems; it will be busy, when called to action with this new invader. Here\u2019s how to ensure it is as strong as possible.<\/p><ul><li>Your immune system is suppressed by toxins, such as alcohol, smoking and an unhealthy diet. Please do everything possible to improve the quality of the air you breathe.<\/li><li>Sneezing is an important part of the immune system. Sneezes protect your body by clearing the nose of bacteria and viruses. Don\u2019t forget to use a tissue.<\/li><li>Vitamins and herbs such as Vitamin D, vitamin C and Echinacea support your immune system.<\/li><li>Consider how much anxiety is floating around,\u00a0 try to calm yourself, your positivity might even rub off on others. For example, seek out fun TV, write down what you are grateful for.<\/li><li>Have you ever noticed how you speak to yourself?\u00a0 Your subconscious doesn\u2019t understand negatives. When in social distancing do you see that as being negative? Try reframing \u201cI am at-risk\u201d to think of yourself as protected and notice any difference.<\/li><\/ul><p>I would also like to shift the emphasis from frightening people, which has a negative effect on their immune system, to a story of empowering them with these simple skills, most of which are absolutely free.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Supporting Your Immune System Our immune systems do an exceptional job even in the midst of Covid-19.
