With autumn in full swing and winter on the horizon, strengthening the immune system is on all of our agendas. The good news is that keeping your immune system strong doesn't have to be a daunting task — in fact, making a few adjustments to your daily routine, diet and lifestyle are all we need to ensure full immune function, in especially at this time of transition to colder days.

In this article, we share five tips for a stronger immune system, from foods to consume at this time of year to essential beauty and well-being products to include in your daily routine!

Stick to a balanced and varied diet

When the topic is the optimal functioning of the immune system, one of the best (and simplest) places to start is in our kitchen. A varied diet rich in antioxidants, vitamins and nutrients is an essential step towards a good immune response, which is why we should include some key foods in our autumn dishes.

Among them , dark green vegetables stand out, such as kale, spinach, Brussels sprouts, chard and broccoli; pumpkin , an excellent source of vitamin A; legumes , such as chickpeas and lentils, great sources of protein, important for an adequate immune response and tissue repair and growth; and also citrus fruits, berries and tomatoes , known antioxidants that not only support the immune system but also play an important role in repairing DNA damage and enhancing the body's ability to repair itself.

Drink water

Here's a tip that we'll never tire of remembering. Drinking water is vital for the functioning of all our organs, and is also an important part of maintaining the normal functioning of the immune system.

With cold weather, however, it is normal that we have less desire to drink water. A very simple way to increase its consumption, while strengthening the immune system, is to add 2 to 4 pipettes filled with Super Immunity Drops in a glass of water. This formula based on medicinal plants and mushrooms offers a natural reinforcement of the body's defenses , enhancing its resilience and regulating the immune response.

Introduce a supplement into your daily routine

Supplementation is important year-round, but it becomes even more crucial during seasonal changes. A food supplement that we cannot do without in our daily routine is Super Mulher , a bioavailable and bioactive formula, with multivitamins, minerals, plant extracts and adaptogens essential for body and emotional balance.

In addition to reducing stress and stimulating energy, mood, focus and well-being, these capsules help regulate cortisol levels (levels that, when elevated, directly affect the immune system) and are formulated with highly beneficial ingredients for our immunity, such as Reishi, Ashwagandha and Amla , one of the main sources of vitamin C that exists.

Perform lymphatic drainage at home

The lymphatic system is part of our immune system, and consists of a network of tissues and organs that help the body release toxins, waste and other unwanted materials. This means that draining massage , in addition to being therapeutic and relaxing, also helps to boost immunity — its benefits are numerous, from assisting in the elimination of toxins, decongesting tissues and helping to reduce inflammation.

The best news of all is that this massage is also very simple to do at home, either with your own fingers or with the help of a tool, like our Hand Body Brush . With natural bristles, this tool allows you to dry brush your skin, a perfect beauty ritual for exfoliation and detox. In addition to removing dead cells, leaving the skin softer and more toned, using this body brush stimulates the lymphatic system, boosting the natural process of releasing toxins.

Prioritize your well-being

We all know that a busy and frenetic lifestyle, combined with the stress that often consumes our daily lives, has a handful of effects on our health — and, consequently, on our immunity.

This is why well-being should be at the top of our priorities . And when we talk about well-being, we talk about gestures such as dedicating a few minutes of your lunch hour to a brisk walk outside, exercising regularly, having an early dinner (essential for good digestion and more restful sleep) and sleeping nine hours a night.

And if you need extra help to boost your digestion and sleep better, try introducing Digestion Drops — to accelerate metabolism, facilitate digestion and activate lymphatic drainage — and Sleep Drops — to promote regular and truly regenerating rest, combat stress and relieve accumulated tension — in your daily routine.
