In this episode of Veggie Doctor Radio, I talk about recently getting the flu, what factors are involved in catching a respiratory infection and what we can actually do to decrease our risk of getting sick.

 

What I discuss in this episode:

Factors involved in catching a respiratory infection:

• Exposure
• Your antibodies
• External factors that affect your physiology - stress, sleep, exercise, diet, mindset

How to decrease your risk of getting sick

• Decrease your exposure and practice contact precautions
• Get adequate sleep
• Get regular exercise
• Eat an antioxidant rich diet and stay hydrated
• Keep a positive mindset

What to do if you get sick:

• Watch for emergency symptoms - unexplained pain, difficulty breathing, dehydration, severe headache, call your provider
• Rest
• Stay hydrated
• Honor your appetite
• Stay away from the public - please dont spread and sanitize
