1. Special daily routine.
In winter, observing the daily routine is especially important. The night increases and the day decreases – naturally nature gives us the opportunity to rest more. The winter period is not intended for intensive loads. Therefore, people who actively relax in the summer and immerse themselves in work with their heads in the winter make some mistake. In winter, people should work in moderation. It is also not recommended to take a nap in winter, as metabolism slows down.
2. Exercise every day.
After waking up and the necessary hygiene procedures, do not forget about morning exercises. Pay attention to prevention for the respiratory system – choose a set of exercises that improve blood circulation, especially in the respiratory tract, throat, cleanse the nasopharynx and relieve congestion. No matter what type of physical activity you choose – yoga, treadmill, fitness in the gym, exercise bike at home, ice skating or a long walk in the park - it is important to move.
3. Switching to a winter diet.
In winter, it is better to limit the diet of high-grade flour products, confectionery and pastries. This is the best time to increase the amount of winter spices on the menu. Ginger and black pepper are best for reducing mucus accumulation and supporting the immune system. It is also worth remembering about garlic, which we most often use in winter. Garlic is rich in vitamins, thanks to which our body successfully counteracts viruses. Do not forget about vegetables and fruits – adding them to each meal provides a minimum of useful vitamins, minerals and antioxidants to the body so that it can maintain our health. Breakfast in winter should be nutritious. You can also drink hot herbal tea an hour after breakfast.
4. A lot of liquid.
8 glasses of water (or tea) is the minimum that is necessary to maintain normal intestinal activity, vigor and a general feeling of energy and will significantly help to control weight. It is recommended to use tea, which helps strengthen the immune system. A universal example of this is green tea because of its rich antioxidant content.
5. Enough sleep.
Sleep is not just a time to relax! Sleep is necessary for the body to recover from stress and active daytime functioning. If we ignore sleep, the body will not be able to correct defects in its systems and respond adequately to adverse factors. Thus, susceptibility to diseases may increase. It is important that sleep takes place in a darkened room so that the body can increase the synthesis of melatonin, a hormone that supports the immune system.
