The Cold and Flu Season Is Here And We Can Avoid Getting Sick With 30 Minutes Of Moderate Exercise Daily

Don't worry about having to exercise strenuously every day to ward off colds and flus this season. With 30 minutes of moderate exercise daily you can boost your immune function to protect yourself. Those of you who like to jog/run can boost their immune system in 2.8 miles a day. But don't stress about it. It has been proven that stress lowers immune function.
If you have to be indoors, put your favorite exercise video on for 30 minutes. While you are exercising keep the following in mind: Exercise is an important component in the elimination of poisons from the body for 3 reasons:
1. Toxins get released through the lungs because exercise causes us to breathe more
deeply and forcefully.
2. When we perspire (sweat) we eliminate metabolic waste from the body.
3. Using our muscles is the only way to move waste through the lymphatic system.

If we don't do any of the above, breathe deeply, sweat and move our muscles, our body cannot get rid of toxins. These toxins will stay in the body and will eventually result in disease.

Three more reasons to move my ass!
