Yes, Mom knows best. I spent my college years downing OTCs to mask the symptoms of winter-weather sickness. After college, I moved in with my mom who suggested a more natural route. Since then, I’ve turned to herbs and free-radical-fighting antioxidants to feel better, faster. With the season upon us, I’m passing along what my mama taught me, including my #1 wellness secret.

After the first few coughs, it’s time to step up the natural, get-well routine. Here’s how it goes:
1. Ramp up with supplements: Okay, so my secret weapon is Source Naturals Wellness Formula. If you buy one thing, this is it! It’s packed with good stuff like echinacea,
2. Sip and soothe: Emergen-C and Yogi tea. Rest is the one of the best things you can do for your body when it’s fighting the yuckies. Sore throat? Look for a tea with marshmallow root and licorice.
3. Keep exercising: When I’m on a regular workout schedule, I’m stronger and feel better all around. Even though you might be weaker than usual and not really interested in germy gyms, try to get in a long walk or do a few at-home exercises so you break a sweat.
4. Stress less: Stressing won’t help anything. In fact, it will only make you feel worse. Exercising and sipping on Yogi Comforting Chamomile Tea keeps me calm and carrying on. This tea helps me get some much-needed rest.
5. Nourish your body: You may have lost your appetite and choose not to eat much at all, or maybe you’re craving comfort food (for me, it’s quesadillas!) that isn’t exactly considered nutritious. Find a middle-ground and make sure you’re feeding your body what it needs to repair and feel better, faster. Amazing Grass
