Title: How to strengthen your immune system!
Post by: friedchickendinner on March 15, 2020, 05:12:11 AM
A good strategy for not getting infected is to build a stronger immune system.


- Stress less! When your body is not under stress it will fight off illness better.

Find good ways to manage stress, jerking off would be one strategy that could be well worth trying!

- Sleep!

"In one surprising study, researchers found 164 men and women willing to be exposed to the cold virus. Not everyone got sick. But short sleepers — those who regularly slept less than six hours a night — were 4.2 times more likely to catch the cold compared with those who got more than seven hours of sleep, researchers found. Risk was even higher when a person slept less than five hours a night."

- Vitamin D!

"While more study is needed on the link between vitamin D and immune health, some promising research suggests that checking your vitamin D level — and taking a vitamin D supplement — could help your body fight off respiratory illness."



Rhino speaks about how he went from 4000 IU per day to 8000 IU per day to 10 000 IU per day until finally 12 000 IU per day.

- Less alcohol!  >:(

"Research shows people who drink in excess are more susceptible to respiratory illness and pneumonia and recover from infection and wounds more slowly. "

"Gain a little weight. We're not talking obesity here. A lot of your memory T cells are in your body fat and can help fight off infection.

"Anthony Ferrante, an associate professor of medicine at Columbia University has stated that he believes these findings prove that fat should be considered as an immune organ alongside other immune organs such as lymph nodes and the thymus.""

Now is not a good time to be shredded!  :D

Worrying about gimmicks isn't good for your immune system!

this I have to agree...since you're most susceptible to contract diseases during the end of contest prep...

When you come “off” you’re more susceptible

I figure this virus may be a while, might as well do what you can do try to maximize your immune system doing this time, people who get infected seem to take an awful long time to recover... for the US - 3,127 infected - 56 recovered.
