Even though we’re nearing the end of winter, August is still a peak time for colds, flu, and fatigue. Giving your immune system a boost now can help protect you during the final stretch of winter and set you up for a healthier spring.
How Do You Know If Your Immune System Is Low?
Your body will often give you signals that it’s under strain:
- You catch colds or infections easily
- You feel tired or run down, even after rest
- You recover slowly from illnesses or injuries
You’re under constant stress, which can weaken immunity
Natural Ways to Strengthen Your Defences
At Plexus South Yarra, our GPs recommend focusing on small but powerful habits:
- Nourish Your Body with the Right Foods: A diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains gives your body the vitamins and minerals it needs to function properly.
- Stay Hydrated and Prioritise Sleep: Water and quality rest help regulate immune responses and speed up recovery.
Routine Health Checks: Sometimes fatigue or low immunity can be linked to vitamin deficiencies or underlying conditions. A GP consultation can help identify and address these issues.
Why Consider IV Vitamin Therapy?
While healthy eating is essential, IV infusion therapy delivers nutrients directly into your bloodstream, bypassing digestion for faster and more efficient absorption. Benefits include:
- Increased energy: Feel less sluggish and more alert.
- Faster recovery: Reduce downtime if you’re already feeling unwell.
- Better immune resilience: Vitamins like C, B-complex, and zinc are crucial for defence.
Feeling run down? Book a GP consultation or schedule an IV wellness infusion with Dr. Dae today.
