6 Tips for Staying Active and Healthy During the Winter Months

1. WORK OUT I N THE MORNING
 Research has shown that regular, moderate exercise keeps the immune system more resilient.
2. TRY SOMETHING NEW
The key to sticking with regular exercise is to make it fun.  The gyms have so much to offer from Zumba, Pilates, Kickboxing, Aqua Aerobics etc.
3. MINIMIZE HOLIDAY STRESS
It's well known that when your stress levels are high, your resistance goes down.  The best way to combat holiday stress is to lower your expectations.  Be prepared for traffic jams and flight delays and find a way to take a little alone time during the season.
4. LET YOURSELF SLEEP
Loosing sleep weakens your immunity, studies show.  You won't be saving yourself any time if you're down for the count, so make sure to get seven or eight hours of sleep each night.
5. EAT YOUR FRUITS AND VEGGIES
When it comes to foods that increase your resistance, you can't do better than fruits and vegetables.  The key immune-boosting vitamins - A, C, and E - are plentiful in colorful produce.
6. TAKE YOUR JUICE PLUS+
It's a good idea to take Juice Plus+ any time of year, because few of us actually manage to fill half our plates at each meal with fruits and vegetables, as the latest USDA guidelines recommed.  During the winter it is most important when immune challenges are more frequent.
