Simple Ways to Activate Your Immune System

4. Frequent Activity

Getting up and intentionally exercising once a day for an hour is great, but if you spend the rest of your day sitting down, those benefits decrease. Being sedentary for hours, whether it's during the long commute or at a desk, can impact how well the immune system works, leaving you more prone to inflammation. Increasing physical activity during the day improves circulation and enhances immune function throughout the day. Simple activities such as standing during phone calls and taking a walk and lunch can make a difference.
