The weather's changing and if you're someone who gets sick every single fall, here are things you can do to avoid getting sick by boosting your immune system!! Here's where I'd start: 🥝 Vitamin C foods: Citrus, bell peppers, kiwi, broccoli. 🦪 Zinc: Pumpkin seeds, chickpeas, oysters, beef. 🥬 Your gut: A huge part of your immune system lives there, so fermented foods like sauerkraut, kefir and kimchi actually matter. If you supplement, vitamin C, vitamin D and zinc are the ones I'd look into. Stress, movement and sleep are also super important. If you're sleeping five hours and running on cortisol, no amount of vitamin C is going to save you. Save this so you can return to it later!! #holistichealing #wellnesstips #immunesystem

Not here to take your PSL away. BUT I do want you to know what is in it. A grande pumpkin spice latte has 50g of sugar. That's 12 teaspoons. The American Heart Association says women should stay under 25g of added sugar a day. So one drink, often on an empty stomach, and you're already past the line before you've eaten anything. Drink it if it makes you happy. What I actually want is for you to know the number, because most of us don't. We're so used to these drinks that "how much sugar is in this?" never crosses our mind. Tell me honestly, did you know? And are you still ordering one tomorrow? #pumpkinspicelatte #psl #pumpkinseason #starbucksdrinks

Travel is a lot on the body. The flights, the time zones, eating out every meal, going to bed at midnight and waking up at 6. But what's the point of being healthy if I can't experience the world? I healed from cancer, and getting my health back is exactly why I travel this much. So I don't skip the trips. I just help my body handle them. Everything I do is in this post. #holistichealing #wellnesstips #holistichealth
