For about 2 years, I was responsible for taking care of my disabled mother fulltime.
This meant I COULD NOT get sick without jeopardizing her health. There wasn't any way I could "call in" to work if I wasn't feeling well.
(While yes, we could have hired a nurse, but they would likely not be familiar with my mother's case or be able to provide 24/7 care, which my mother needed. Home health can be a bit complicated.)
Here are some things I did to prevent getting sick:
1.) Sleep long and deep this was not always possible for me, as I would have to wake up multiple times during the night to attend to my mom. However, whenever I got a chance to sleep even 5 hours uninterrupted, it made a BIG difference.
2.) Eat lots of ginger powder ginger has been shown in scientific studies to reduce inflammation and help prevent infections, but anecdotally I've had a great experience with it as well. I highly recommend trying it to anyone that is able.
3.) Eat lots of raw garlic similar to ginger, but it seems to be even more potent, particularly for respiratory infections. I recommend not eating this on an empty stomach.
4.) Gargle with salt water (and boil salt water and inhale vapors) this seemed to prevent infection from settling in my upper respiratory system.
5.) Reduce stress this may be one of the hardest ones, but our emotional state plays a big role in our physiological health. Take steps to pamper your mental health.
I hope this helps! If it becomes an issue, I can link some studies, but they are already quite easy to find online for anybody looking. Additionally, I made this video with the intention of sharing what has worked for me anecdotally. Try it if you want, but if you are hesitant or skeptical, you don't have to!
