Autumn is a period when it is especially important for the body to prepare for seasonal challenges: colds, decreased energy, and a worsening mood. All these phenomena are associated with a weakened immune system.

The immune system is the body's defense mechanism that helps resist various infections and external influences. Strong immunity allows you not to worry about your health even in the midst of epidemics. However, it is worth starting preparation for the cold season in advance, because a weakened body is easily influenced by unfavorable factors.

The following recommendations will help strengthen the body's defenses, easily survive temperature fluctuations and enjoy autumn without fear of getting sick. To increase the body's resistance, it is enough to be attentive to it, avoiding unnecessary stress.

Enrich your diet with vitamins

Continue to eat fresh vegetables and fruits rich in vitamin C (citrus fruits, kiwi, bell peppers) and B vitamins (fish, meat, dairy products, eggs, cereals).
