RE: Natural Ways to Prevent Yourself From Getting Sick, Contributed by @sharingeverybite
When I get sick, besides the holistic approaches you mentioned, honestly, nothing. I feel society nowadays is so terrified of getting ill that the first hint of not feeling well, they immediately jump to medication. Nothing wrong with medication if you really need it, but you didn't sick because you were deficient in aspirin. People don't want to take care of themselves and instead just want to pop a pill. Well, the path to good health is not that simple. If it was, everyone wouldn't be sick. The key to faster recovery when one falls ill is to take holistic approaches and just let the sickness takes it place. The body has evolved over millennia to know what to do. Trust it!
Amen to that! Besides, most pills just work to do one thing...cover up symptoms, not address the root of the problem. The only time I'll take any type of prescription is when there is absolutely no other way to fix the problem, like with strep throat when it could turn into scarlet fever without a z-pack.
I'm sure there are even ways to tackle it more naturally than that. I could go on a giant rant about how antibiotics are overused and overprescribed. They're a big reason why society's gut microbiomes are all out of balance and causing so many other health issues. I digress.... ;P
