While many people take Vitamin A for eye health, it also has immune enhancing properties. Vitamin A is also being studied in the treatment of many infectious diseases.
As always, consult your doctor before you begin taking new supplements to make certain they will not interfere with your current medications or conditions.

It’s important to maintain good immune health all year, but particularly in the winter months where we’re all indoors more than we’re out of doors.
To maintain good immune health, take Vitamin D3.
Vitamin D is one of the four fat-soluble vitamins that help fight respiratory infections. Many people who have had Covid have tested with very low vitamin D levels. Vitamin D can be created naturally with exposure to sun, but in the winter months, exposure times are very long, so a supplement is best.
As always, consult your doctor before you begin taking new supplements to make certain they will not interfere with your current medications or conditions.

If you’ve ever had a kidney stone, you’ll never want another. Lemons are the highest source of citrate of any of the citrus fruits. Citrate will help dissolve calcium before it can form into a kidney stone. Squeeze fresh lemons or buy commercial lightly-sweetened lemonade. Both work.
Exercise outdoors in the early afternoon when the temperature is at its highest. Have warm, dry clothing ready to put on when you finish your workout. When you stop exercising, you generate less heat, but the cold air continues to pull warmth away from your body.
If you run, change your course so that you run out against the wind, and return with the wind at your back. This will help reduce feeling so cold with sweat-soaked clothing.
Consider the wind chill. A wind of 20 mph will make the temperature feel 20 degrees colder. Early signs of hypothermia include weakness, shivering, fatigue, slurred speech, dizziness and confusion. If you experience any of these symptoms, move to a warm area immediately.
A lot of heat is lost through your head and neck, so a hat is important. Use a turtleneck pulled up over your mouth to warm up the air you breathe. Mittens keep fingers warmer than gloves, and together with a hat can help prevent frostbite on fingers or ears.
Try not to overdress which can cause increased sweating. Moisture contributes to heat loss. Remove layers as your body heats up, or start out your workout a little bit chilly. Your body will heat up as you get going.
