How to Prevent Sinus Infections Before They Start
Poor food quality, excessive exposure to toxic chemicals and a
high-stress lifestyle puts you at greater risk for not only sinus
infection but all disease. Therefore, maintaining a robust immune system
and creating an environment inhospitable to bacterial and fungal
proliferation can help prevent sinus problems and infections from
occurring in the first place. Here are some of the basic strategies to
keep your immune system in top form:
- Avoid eating sugar or grains
- Take a high-quality animal-based omega-3 supplement such as krill oil, which acts as a potent anti-inflammatory
- Optimize your vitamin D
levels by getting appropriate amounts of sun exposure year-round.
Alternatively, use a safe tanning bed (one with electronic ballasts
rather than magnetic ballasts, to avoid unnecessary exposure to EMF
fields. Safe tanning beds also have less of the dangerous UVA than
sunlight.) If neither of these are feasible options, then you should
take an oral vitamin D3 supplement.
- Consume organic coconut oil. Coconut oil is rich in lauric acid,
which is known for being antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal
- Get proper sleep
- Get regular exercise especially Peak Fitness type exercises
