A quote from Dr. Mercola:
…one study found that people who exercised regularly (five or more days a week) cut their risk of having a cold by close to 50 percent. Exercise likely cuts your risk of colds so significantly because it triggers a rise in immune system cells that can attack any potential invaders.
This is an addition to the previous post on ways to fight a cold. The list in this article, to build your immune system includes:
- Optimize your vitamin D levels
- Avoid sugar and grains
- Get proper rest
- Effectively address emotional stressors
- Regular exercise

35 years of reading and study makes me boldly say: this list will help prevent a lot of things – not just a cold. Building your immune system is the key!
