Colleen O’Neil, founder of Mediation and Beyond explores with Dr. Veena Verma-Dzik a board certified Naturopathic Physician and certified medical acupuncturist the necessities of supporting our immune system during the pandemic and always. Dr V speaks to the importance of working with a medical professional before starting any vitamin regimen to make certain that you are not only taking what you need but the correct dosage of the supplement you are taking. Dr V speaks to creating a healthy lifestyle rather than just taking a medication. Her go to supplements especially now are Vitamin D3, Vitamin C, Zinc, Monolaurin, Quercetin, Glutahione. These are significant in helping support a healthy immune system in addition to exercise, proper sleep habits and a diet rich in fruits and vegetables. One style that Dr V endorses is the Mediterranean Diet, as she feels it has all the components of clean eating. One of the last things touched upon is the importance of taking care of your mental health as it can impact your physical health. Reducing our stress levels, reducing alcoholic consumption, dealing with our anxiety and depression with the professionals who can assist and guide us. Health is not just about putting a band aid on the area of concern it’s about treating the root of the problem for long term success.
