We are frankly amazed that no one is talking about boosting health as the Number 1 thing we all need to be doing. To protect us from getting Covid if exposed and dealing with the symptoms if we do have it. Boosting health is the most important element of personal responsibility and we can all make simple changes to help.

Tip 1
Consume at least 51% RAW each day

Raw food is defined as that which is prepared at under 42 degrees Celsius so basically all fruits, veg, salads and raw meals. The enzyme, nutrient, vitamin and mineral content found in raw plant foods cannot be matched, and by having at least 51% raw food your body does not enter digestive leukocytosis which can severely impair the immune system. The simplest way to do this is add more juices, smoothies, salads and raw meals to your diet each day. On our Juice Hideaway retreat we give guests eBooks as they leave so to help we’d like to share that with you now. Juice ebook and raw food meals ebook

Tip 2
Reduce body fat to 20% and exercise daily

One thing that is proven to reduce the chances of getting increased problems with Covid, is if you are carrying excess body fat. 20% is an optimal level and one we should all aspire to. The easiest way other than diet to achieve this is to exercise daily and get your heart rate above 100 for at least 30 minutes a day.



Tip 3 - Remove refined and processed foods from your diet

It’s so easy to live conveniently, so to get back to cooking as it should be, and remove the foods that contain so many hidden calories will only help to boost health. Swap your ready meal for a freshly cooked one, don’t buy processed snacks and drinks that aren’t going to fuel the body and fuel the body when it needs the most fuel, during the day.

The single most important factor to ensuring your body can deal anything the world throws at it, including Covid, is having a strong and robust immune system. Immunity is key to overall health and we cant be strong interally unless we are putting the right things in. The good news is there are some great tips to boost immunity.
