Strengthen Your Immune System the Natural Way

A strong immune system is an absolute necessity for you to enjoy a truly satisfying life. An unhealthy lifestyle combined with exposure to pollution, GMO produce, drugs, and stressors makes you susceptible to a number of ailments.

Furthermore, a lowered immunity weakens your ability to recover from an illness. For these reasons, it is far more desirable to strengthen your immune system and safeguard good health than to rely on treatments that promise recovery from bad health.

Effectiveness of natural remedies

Natural remedies are not only the safest way to good health, but also the least expensive ones.  Unlike conventional methods that focus solely on treatment of established symptoms, natural methods assist the body to fight off harmful invaders on its own.

With a healthy body strong enough to protect itself, the chances of a recurring illness are fewer. This is truly the only path to long-term health and happiness.

Easy-to-follow natural remedies

Easy-to-follow natural remedies such as the following combined with lifestyle changes can help counteract side effects of many conventional medications. Most importantly, they reduce the likelihood of ever contracting an illness in the first place. 

1. Drink water: Drinking water throughout the day flushes out toxins and wards off headaches. Add a squeeze of lemon to a glass of warm water and it is an elixir, potent enough to expel harmful bacteria and viruses.
2. Reject caffeine: Your morning coffee may be working against you by dehydrating your body and robbing it of necessary nutrients. If coffee is a ‘must’, make sure to counter each cup with two glasses of water.
3. Eat healthy: A diet rich in raw fruit and vegetable, with plenty of protein from other healthy foods, keeps your body healthy without stressing the liver. Moreover, it strengthens your mind, body and the immune system.
4. Exercise regularly: Regular exercise is quite necessary for everyone; it is even more necessary if you spend most of your day indoors, breathing filtered air and germs from other people. It stimulates the lymphatic system to flush out toxins and give your immune system the boost it needs.
5. Avoid refined sugar: Eliminating refined sugar by itself can improve the body’s defense mechanisms, body mass index, and energy levels.

Healing with homeopathy

The term homeopathy was coined from Greek words that meant ‘similar suffering’; the system is based on the therapeutic principle of ‘like cures like’. This is similar to allergy treatments and vaccinations – using a disease-causing treatment to kill a disease – i.e., using a thorn to remove a thorn.

However, homeopathic medicines are far safer, as they are most patient-specific and individualized. The remedies do not override the body’s natural wisdom, but stimulate the immune system in tandem with the health requirements of the body. This is important because over stimulation of the immune system can result in autoimmune illnesses such as lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, and celiac disease.

When the immune system function is in top gear, it automatically fights invading pathogens, and calms down the body at the same time to ensure necessary natural healing. Homeopathic remedies are especially effective when prescribed to match a unique pattern of symptoms.

The easy-to-follow natural remedies listed above combined with homeopathic prescription have multiple benefits – from preventing the onset of symptoms to speeding up recovery at a later stage.

While it’s safe to rely on self-help books for minor conditions, the key to a successful homeopathic treatment lies in the personalized advice and expert care of an experienced homeopath.
