My Favorite Immune Boosters

Now that the shelter-in-place is being lifted (some states ahead of others), it’s important that we re-enter public spaces with robust immune systems. Unfortunately, magnified stress and anxiety, worsened pre-existing health issues, and the effects of a stagnant lifestyle have left many weaker than before.

Exposure to toxic cleaners in a confined indoor environment with toxic news playing 24/7 in the background while eating toxic comfort food to cope with the stress certainly hasn’t helped our immune systems. For optimal health, our bodies need fresh air, physical movement, healthful whole foods, and a balanced nervous system.

Recipe: Grain-Free Vegan Carob Cookies with Date Caramel Icing

Those of you following me on Instagram may have heard about the month-long, infection-busting protocol my son and I are in the midst of completing. In addition to taking heavy doses of herbal supplements (like maitake mushrooms, olive leaf extract, and many more), we're on a very limited diet in an effort to avoid as much unnecessary inflammation as possible. Cooking becomes a bit challenging without grains (with the exception of rice), dairy, nightshades, nuts, coconut, soy, legumes, chocolate, coffee, eggs, ferments and sweeteners (including maple syrup and honey).
