Immunity Strength

Your immune system really has a lot of say in what you do when you're exercising and going about your regular daily habits.
Your life style and eating habits have a lot to do with your immunities. If you have a poor diet, one that consists of chicken nuggets and pizza pockets, and for hydration you drink a lot Gatorade and Pepsi non stop all day, you're probably sick anywhere from once every month to two months.
   Yes I understand if you have a naturally low immune system due to health issues that don't come from lifestyle habits or anything. It does happen. And if you have HIV, it's your fault for doing that.
   Now, to maintain a healthy system, and to stay well and not sick, you have to eat right. You've probably heard this a ton, but it's true, and it's not changing.
   Also having a diet to keep you regular if you will, keeps toxins out of you. It reduces hormones that your body doesn't require, and the toxin releasing will help your body fight other things instead of having to keep up with all of the other things that it's trying to keep out.
   So if you were wondering, having a strong immune system requires eating well and lots of pooping. So why not do something that's relieving and feels good to keep well? You've probably read my other post about keeping a clean system. It's somewhere blow this post.
   Food that scrape out your insides, ones that are filled with vitamins and minerals and antioxidants are just what you want. The occasional moon pie is completely okay, but not for three meals a day.
   Get your sugars, but in the right way. When I say sugars, I don't mean corn syrup, white sugar, and splenda. Heavens above no! Splenda is probably the worst thing you could ever do! And it tastes like powdered goat butt! I look at labels now on certain products I buy at the store in fear of taking it home to find out its sweetened with splenda. I really hate it when my ice cream has a gritty flavor and is, "healthy".
   By getting your sugars, I would mean something along the lines of getting them out of fresh fruits and vegetables. There are so many things we as humans can eat to remain healthy, but we don't eat them as often as we should. Eating those things will keep us well and strong.
   I do understand that bodybuilders and people who power lift will eat diets so high in carbs they're practically chewing on bricks before a work out, and that junk food does make you strong. But rest assure, you're body is not meant for lifting things like that off of that kind of stuff. Chances are, you'll probably live until you're forty and then your heart will turn into a cup of pudding and you'll spend the rest of your life on a pacemaker.
   Being well is a combination of eating well and being strong. You can lift weights and run every day, but you can still be ridden with horrible allergies and fevers on the weekend if you don't eat well to maintain a good immune system.
   Also, when you have a week immune system, you stay sick for longer. You can probably decrease your sick time by about two fold if you eat right to maintain a strong immune system.
