Building Your Immune System Naturally: Fighting Colds and Flu Without Medicine
Manage episode 510308459 series 3657150
Are you tired of reaching for the medicine cabinet every time cold and flu season hits? In this episode, Katie and Chrissy explore how to build a robust immune system naturally—the way God designed it to work.
We dive into the science behind immunity, why our obsession with hand sanitizer might be doing more harm than good, and how gut health is the foundation of a strong immune system. Plus, we share practical natural remedies you can use when illness strikes, from bone broth to eucalyptus oil.
In This Episode:
- Why microplastic exposure from contact lenses matters (and Katie's experiment with reversing poor eyesight!)
- How leaky gut syndrome weakens your immune response
- The power of bone broth, raw honey, and organ meats
- Natural remedies: mullein tinctures, eucalyptus oil, and more
- Why sunshine, sleep, and stress management are non-negotiables for immunity
