Get Ready For Flu Season, The Natural Way
What we know as “the flu” is a viral and highly contagious respiratory illness. It can affect the nose, throat, and even the lungs.
These symptoms can be mild to severe. At its mildest, symptoms can be managed with over-the-counter medication. At its worse, the flu can result in a hospital stay.
Your best line of defense? Not getting it in the first place. Here’s how to fortify your immune system and get ready for flu season, naturally:
Here Is How The Flu Affects The Body
Fever & Chills
As your immune system fights off the infection, your body temperature will rise. You may experience night sweats and chills.
Shortness of Breath
The flu is a respiratory illness, so it will impact your breathing. You may have difficulty taking a deep breath, or shortness of breath.
Fatigue
As your body struggles to fight off illness, it depletes your energy levels, leading to tiredness and fatigue that you just can’t shake.
Body Aches & Headaches
You may experience headaches and body aches. It’s important to stay hydrated and eat, even if you aren’t hungry, to avoid this.
How Can I Fortify My Immune System?
AT WELL THEORY, OUR GOAL IS TO HELP YOU CURATE A LIFE LIVED WELL – IN A LASTING, HOLISTIC WAY.
This should be a daily staple whether you are preparing for flu season or not.
Eating a balanced, nutrient-rich meal and getting physical activity every day can help to fortify your respiratory system, boost immune health, and prepare you for cold season.
Stress greatly affects the body, from promoting inflammation, which can lead to weakened immunity.
Keep stress levels low with aromatherapy and regular self-care to keep your immune system primed and ready to work.
Even if you don’t lead a particularly active lifestyle, your body undergoes stress every day. It’s important to get at least 8 hours of sleep a day to make sure your body has time to rest and recover, as this frees up more energy for your immune system.
Keeping in touch with your doctor and attending each scheduled appointment can help pinpoint health concerns that may impact immunity.
If your nutrition is suffering or you need to make some lifestyle changes to improve your overall well-being, your physician can help you with that!

Take Charge Of Your Health With Well Theory
Conventional medicine often overlooks holistic, long-term lifestyle changes in favor of prescribing heavy pharmaceuticals, recommending harsh and invasive treatments like surgeries, and more in an attempt to stop pain or disease as it occurs.
