As a child, I want to say that I had a pretty good immune system. As an adult, that hasn’t changed too much. Sure, I’m the victim of seasonal allergies, I have sensitive skin, and I’m lactose intolerant… but, I don’t get sick too often. When I do get sick, usually it doesn’t last too long though there have been some colds that really threw me for a loop. I try not to reach for medicine because I feel that it’s suppressing my immune system rather than working with it. And that’s why I’ve started looking for natural ways to boost my immune system.

A lot of that has to do with genetics, body structure, etc. but there is a definite difference.

Me, for example, I’m not the most coordinated person out there and I’m not a huge fan of running. I do, however, enjoy Pilates, swimming, walking, hiking, and a few other things. My mom loves bike riding while I’m lucky if I can stay on the bike…

Whether it’s through an article we’ve read, advice from a doctor, or from family members; we know that we should stay hydrated. This is particularly important during the summer months.

I’ve never been one to always take my own advice. Even when it came to important things like getting enough water every day or at least making sure that I was monitoring my fluid intake.
