• 1

  Improve your diet and nutrition by avoiding processed foods and eating as many whole foods and grains as possible along with fresh ocean fish, garlic, sea greens and yogurt.

• 2

  Supplement your diet with antioxidants such as selenium, beta carotene and vitamin E along with CoQ10 and acidophilus, which is a probiotic.

• 3

  Exercise for about 20 minutes three times per week, because exercise enhances the immune system by increasing oxygen, which helps to combat antibodies, or sickness.
