We often see patients at this time of year who have already succumbed to colds and need to have their immunity increased. We also can predict that we will see some patients in the New Year who will have a few colds and maybe flu, and feel they have some sort of post viral symptoms, which are slow to improve. Often these include low energy and fatigue and lack of concentration and motivation.
The best way to look after yourself is to prevent yourself from picking up colds and flu by building your immunity now. Acupuncture is one great way of doing this. The other way is through diet and nutrition and eating foods that are rich in anti-oxidants and boost your immune system. This article here from the College Of Naturopathic Medicine has some great tips about which foods to build into your daily eating habits now.
