Good overall health depends on hydration and this affects the immune system’s functioning directly. Water enhances circulation and provides an important means of delivering oxygen, sweeping away poisons and moving water-soluble vitamins all over the body.

Sufficient quality sleep of about seven or eight hours enhances immune health. While asleep, the brain replaces the synapses for proper functioning of the brain as well as overall bodily functions. The body’s immune system prospers with appropriate rest. Build an effective bedtime routine for better sleep.

Immune health may be compromised by mental stress and emotional stress. It is important to understand what causes stress and how it can be managed so as to retain a healthy mind and body. Realise that stress is just part and parcel of living or life in general. Manage stress to reduce its effect on immune function.
