Disclaimer: This episode is not medical advice. We are not GPs or doctors; we are sharing our personal experiences and insights. In this episode, we delve into the importance of boosting the immune system, drawing on personal stories and experiences. Emily shares insights from her journey raising kids and managing their health, while Liz discusses her experiences with burnout and illness recovery while training for an ironman, running business and working with kids as a paediatric exercise physiologist. We emphasise that immune support is crucial not just in winter but throughout the entire year. We discuss the role of exercise in maintaining health, stressing the need for balance. While exercise is beneficial, high-intensity workouts can stress the body. We explore the differences between aerobic and anaerobic exercises, comparing cardio and weight training, and discuss the importance of knowing when to pause exercising if you're feeling unwell. We also highlight smart exercise choices like pilates or stretching. Proactive health measures are essential. We underscore the importance of rest and sleep, and discuss dietary tips such as reducing sugar intake and increasing protein to support the immune system. Scheduling "white space" on weekends for relaxation and incorporating monthly remedial massages to counteract long hours at little tables and chairs are also recommended. Collaborating with your GP for a comprehensive health plan is crucial, especially for managing recurrent infections. We discuss the use of various health interventions, preventions and teams.  We go into our personal preference in natural remedies and supplements. Liz shares her preventative and illness plan from naturopathy to medical plans, while Emily discusses natural immunity-boosting tablets and probiotics for her family. We highlight the significance of gut health, with Liz's experience with antibiotics and their impact on gut health We encourage listeners not to accept frequent sickness as normal and to address health issues proactively.
