What Habits Should You Get Into to Protect Yourself from Disease: Anyone Can Do It

Surely among your acquaintances there are people who, it would seem, never get sick – even if those around them sneeze and cough every now and then.

It's likely that healthy habits help them stay on their feet.

Therefore, instead of envying someone else’s strong immunity, it’s worth learning about simple ways to protect yourself from diseases and implementing them into your life.

Dream

Sleep is of great importance for health. If you don’t want to get sick, sleep a full 8 hours, because there are statistics that people who sleep less than 7 hours a day are more likely to get colds.

Vaccination

The issue of vaccination should be discussed with your therapist. If you have no contraindications, consider getting a flu shot - it is effective in 50-60% of cases, and when infected, it makes the symptoms of the disease less severe.

Giving up bad habits

Strong immunity is the result of giving up bad habits. This primarily concerns smokers, who get sick twice as often as people who are not addicted to cigarettes.

Physical exercise

There is hardly any need to explain the connection between regular exercise and good health.

Strong social connections

Doctors believe that people who rarely get sick are distinguished by their sociability, and they often burst into sincere laughter and look at what is happening with a positive outlook.
