39 - Winter Sickness, Daycare Virus Onslaught and Holiday Sickness Syndrome - We've Got You Covered With Our Favourite Immune Supporting Tips

Husky, sniffly voices from Chloe and Georgia in their timely episode covering all things sickness, in particular Winter viruses.

Some topics covered in this episode include:

  • Why do we get more sick in Winter?
  • Factors that increase your risk of sickness (such as super common nutritional deficiencies)
  • Fever - should you let it run it's course?
  • Our favourite Naturopathic herbs and supplements to use when we're sick
  • Also, have you ever heard of leisure sickness? Also known as Holiday Sickness Syndrome. In this episode, we explore why some people get sick just as they start to unwind—and what you can do to avoid it.
