Taking care of your health is important every season of the year. However, in winter our bodies are more vulnerable and in order to avoid illnesses typical of this time of year, such as colds and flu, we need to take special care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In today's post we reveal 6 tips for dealing with low temperatures, including eating well, moisturising your skin and taking supplements such as astaxanthin<\/a>. These are important measures that help maintain a healthy life and a sense of well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Drink more water<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

In winter it's common to reduce our water consumption, but it's essential to keep our bodies functioning properly. Drinking water every day also helps to build stronger antibodies, as well as moisturising the skin and throat. The ideal is to drink at least two litres of water a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Take Astaxanthin supplements<\/strong><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

With the hustle and bustle of everyday life, maintaining a balanced diet is a major challenge. For this reason, it's best to eat foods that contain astaxanthin, such as salmon, or alternatively take astaxanthin-based capsules. Astaxanthin has numerous health benefits<\/a>It also helps to strengthen the immune system against external agents, which is essential at this time of year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Moisturise your skin<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Due to less perspiration and hotter baths, the skin suffers more in winter. For this reason, it's very important to change your daily habits, opting for quicker showers, using neutral soaps and moisturising lotions. Lips also suffer from low temperatures, so it's important to have a good lip moisturiser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Keep the room ventilated<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

In winter we have the habit of closing the windows to make the room warmer, a practice that should be avoided as the air stops circulating, thus increasing the possibility of possible contagion by viral diseases such as Covid-19. For this reason, it's important to keep spaces ventilated and windows half open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Maintain a balanced diet<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Eating a healthy diet helps us to keep our immunity high, which is essential during a period of low temperatures. That's why we should eat fruit and vegetables, which provide the body with nutrients and vitamins. Recommended foods include citrus fruits, seeds, carrots, beetroot, tomatoes, fish, eggs, broccoli and beans, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. exercise<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Physical exercise helps strengthen the immune system. However, many people abandon this activity on colder days, which is totally wrong, since when practised regularly, physical exercise helps care for the body, improves sleep quality, warms up the muscles and brings a host of health benefits.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
