Boost Immunity and Go OUTSIDE!

For obvious reasons, it is a good time to consider ways we can all boost our immunity.
I want to keep this short and just focus on some of our favorite products we use all year round and in cold and
flu season already, to try to always maintain a healthy immunity. For a longer and more thorough guide to
handling pandemics from a natural health perspective I highly recommend this post from Wellness Mama
(not just for moms!): Common Sense Guide to Viruses and Pandemics and her most recent podcast, Coronavirus:
A Common Sense Approach with Pediatrician Dr. Elisa Song.

As you may have noticed a lot of things are currently out of stock, including some of my favorite products,
so I will share first about the ones that are IN STOCK as of writing this post. 

  • I will start with my favorite Shaklee products to maintain and boost health and immunity. 
    • I always keep Defend and Resist (elderberry, echinacea blend supplement) and Vitalized Immunity (think heathier Emergen-C) on hand. I’ve also added Nutriferon to the list currently, which provides amazing immune support at the cellular level. You can view those products here. 
    • My kids daily take the Incredivites,1  chewable Vitamin C (more when sick), and 1 Defend and Resist (2 when sick). They also take a half tablet of Vitalized Immunity as a drink when they are sick. They get their probiotics daily through the Nutiva Protein Shake (and I put a scoop in my coffee). 
    • I aim for daily taking a Vitalizer strip (includes multivitamin, vitamin c, b, probiotic, and more!) and am also currently trying to take the Nutriferon daily. 
    • Here’s a pill version of the Vitamin C. It’s also a good idea to make sure your Vitamin D levels are good. 
    • We keep garlic on hand if we need a natural antibiotic.  
    • We use their Basic G disinfectant as our cleaner, which is proven effective against strains of coronavirus. (on backorder)
    • Their amazing concentrated hand soap is another great product that we love. 

*You can order all of these products from my personal website here:

  • In addition to all of these products, we try to maintain a healthy diet full of real food, organic when
  • possible, and severely limit our intake of sugar and gluten. 

  • This is also a great time to support local farms for your meat and produce or start your own urban
  • homestead or garden. We love Marmilu Farms and they deliver to Memphis and Nashville. 

  • Get Outside! And lastly, but definitely not least, spending a lot of time outdoors in the fresh air has
  • innumerable health benefits, along with reducing stress and anxiety and promoting peace of mind.
  • If you’re local to Memphis here is my list of favorite places to hike and explore in the woods.
  • Spring is the perfect time to enjoy the outdoors, and during these stressful and uncertain times,
  • it has never been a better time to get out into nature!
