The book, Gut and
Psychology Syndrome, by Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride, lists ten
influences that boost your immune system:
- Cold pressed oils: Olive oil. Fish oils, nut and seed oils.
- Fresh eggs, particularly raw egg yolk.
- Onions and garlic
- Freshly pressed vegetable and fruit juices.
- Regular consumption of greens: parsley, dill, coriander, spring onion, and garlic, etc.
- Probiotic supplementation and fermented foods.
- Contact with animals: horses, dogs, etc. Having a pet can do a lot for children’s immune status.
- Physical activity in the fresh air.
- Swimming in unpolluted natural waters: lakes, rivers and sea.
- Exposure to sunlight and sensible bathing.
I have changed my life in order to boost my immune system
and I am following Dr. Campbell-McBride’s wholesome recommendations. I’m on the GAPS Diet
to heal my gut. I’m juicing fresh pressed vegetables and fruit as often as I can. I take probiotics and eat fermented
foods and greens everyday. I cook with cold pressed oils.
And, last but not least, I hike in nature.

I believe Dr. Campbell- McBride’s guide is a step
toward improving everyone’s quality of life.
I also believe that this list is incomplete. Improving our immune systems involve not only
our physical self, but our emotional and spiritual components as well. Research has shown that being in a positive
emotional state enhances the immune system. Based on that fact, I would like to
add a few more personal guidelines to the list:
- Being grateful as a permanent trait. (My health started to improve by leaps and bounds after this life changing healing session with Dr. Gurevich.) The Holistic Dr. Gurevich.
- Practicing forgiveness. (I am living proof of the powerful positive effects of forgiveness with the help of Dr. Rasa.) Healing Through Forgiveness.
- Connecting to your spiritual self. We are all connected to a higher power. (This belief helped me to dissolve my fears and change my thoughts into a more positive direction.) "I Must Not Fear...Fear Is The Mind-Killer..."
- Empower yourself with love and positive thinking. I found a passion in sharing, giving and spreading hope. I found a new voice and a new healing direction in The Mini Miracle.
