. Minimize Toxins
A chemical that is extremely toxic and detrimental to your immune system might just be in your very own home—I’m talking about Advil and aspirin.
A study at the University of Maryland showed that people who break their fever when they get a cold or the flu stay sick 3.5 days longer than people who let the fever do its job. In the long term, crippling the defenses weakens your immune system and raises your risk of cancer.
You can also start to swap out toxic personal care products like toothpaste and shampoo for natural brands.
