  1. Make sure you take on board enough water throughout the day. Stagger drinking five pints of water throughout the day. Let three of these be a warm pint of water drank a half hour before every meal. This is to prepare your body for food putting strain on your body and the warmness of the water means it is absorbed immediately.
  2. Avoid stimulants to get you going in the morning. Reaching for tea, coffee or cigarettes in the morning sets off a rollercoaster ride of blood sugar levels. This leads to irrational behaviour, such as mood swings and tiredness.

  3. Take a good multinutriant and spread the dose throughout the day. This will allow you to stay healthy when all around are suffering from colds.
  4. Start the day with a decent sized breakfast. This is important to set your blood sugar for the day. Try and have slow releasing carbohydrates such as oats that will keep you steady.

  5. Make sure each day has some form of exercise. It does not have to be too strenuous but enough to make the link between mind and body.
  6. Take Omega 3 fish oils along with lecithin not only to keep you away from depression but also to help you think though hard days.

  7. When you get a cold or feel under the weather take a high dose Vitamin C tablet.
  8. Finish the shower in the morning with three cold bursts of cold water. Going from hot to cold at least three times. This will get your lymphatic system working.

  9. Avoid high sugar food early in the morning and on an empty stomach. As this will lead to fatigue as the post sugar high effects kick in.
  10. Buy a juicer and take a fresh vegetable and fruit juice on board everyday. Swill the juice around your mouth to mix with digestive enzymes to make sure that as much is absorbed as possible.
