I’m obsess with purple/pink these days & can’t get enough of this new outfit @underarmourwomen #UARUSH it’s too cute 🥰
Anyway, gym dah bukak & since Covid-19 case kat Selangor ni kejap turun kejap naik. Let’s have a look at what u can do to optimise your immune system.
Siapa yg pergi gym tu, make sure to 🧼 after what yo’ve touched please! And don’t forget your 😷.
1️⃣ Focus on whole food & key nutrients. Elak dr nutrients deficiency. So mkn whole food like veggie, protein, whole grains, healthy fats & fruits.
Nutrients yg boleh kuat kan “white blood cells” to fight infections ⬇️
Protein: “the building block of antibodies” - aim to have a serving with meal/snack.
Vitamin C: Prevent & fight infection. Mkn whole food yang tinggi Vit-C 1-2 servings a day: Ada banyak, bukan orange je. Go online and do some readings ok.
Vitamin D: Helps protect against respiratory tract infections. Sebelum ambil Vit-D supplement, better buat test dulu ok.
Zinc: Few best sources are from whole grains, oysters and scallop. Tapi jgn la telan hari2 pulak kan the 🦪 & scallops tu 😅
Omega 3 Fatty Acids: Reduce inflammation & help white blood cells do their job. Mkn 🌱 sources of ALA such as Chia seeds & Flexseeds. Mkn Oily Fish utk DHA/EPA 2-3 a week. Kalau jrg makan Ikan, consider supplements.
2️⃣ Cuba maintain/dptkan healthy body fat %. This one, tgk lah kornag ikut cara apa. Nak diet ikut portion boleh, nak count calories & macro pun boleh. Janji deficit. Yg mkn ikut calorie pastikan mkn seimbang. Jgn 300kcal satu plate Tapi semua carbs pulak 😅
3️⃣ Gut Health! Yg ni ramai ambil x endah. Tingkat kan makanan kaya probiotik yg boleh bantu boost good gut bacteria.
4️⃣ Get Active. Yg ni paling mudah. Malas g gym pergi je jog/cycling/dance buat la apa kornag suka.
5️⃣ Tido Cukup! Phm semua tgh gila2 hustlin’ nowadays. Tapi pastikan tido cukup. Kalau x cukup tido, make sure to sneak in 20mins power nap during the day. Recharge tu penting.
6️⃣ DeStress & manage ur stress well. Take a time off kejap to do some meditation, tgk video funny ke. Kalau x sempat betul, sneak in 1min breathing exercise.
7️⃣ Hygiene! 🧼 ur hand!
