Bounce Back Faster! My Go-To Immune-Boosting Routine for Colds and Congestion! (Copy) (Copy)

Written By Addison Stoller

Feeling a cold creeping in? Dealing with congestion or just want to strengthen your immunity naturally? I’ve been there, and through trial and error, I’ve discovered a few effective ways to bounce back faster and support my body holistically. Here’s my ultimate immune-boosting lineup to keep you going strong. Let’s dive in!

1. Lemon & Garlic – Nature’s Dynamic Duo 🍋🧄

Lemon and garlic are my first line of defense! Both are packed with antioxidants and antibacterial properties that make them powerful immune allies. Lemon provides a dose of vitamin C, and garlic’s natural sulfur compounds work to fend off bacteria and viruses. I add lemon to warm water in the morning and incorporate fresh garlic into meals whenever possible to boost my defenses.

2. Red Light Therapy – More Than Just a Skin Treatment 🔴

Red light therapy isn’t just about glowing skin; it’s also an excellent way to support the immune system. By increasing circulation and reducing inflammation, red light therapy can enhance your body’s natural healing processes, helping you feel better faster. Just a few minutes a day can make a difference!

My favorite on-the-go and top quality brand is Lumebox! And just for you, I have a special discount code that will save you $265!!! I know it’s an investment but I cannot say how worth it, it is.

3. Sauna or Steam – Sweat It Out 🔥

Nothing clears out congestion quite like a good sweat. If you have access to a sauna, it’s an ideal way to detox and relieve that stuffy feeling by promoting sweat-based detoxification. No sauna? A steam inhalation is a great alternative for soothing congestion – just add a few drops of eucalyptus oil to warm water and breathe deeply.

4. Hydration – Keep the Fluids Flowing 💦

Staying hydrated is critical, especially when you’re under the weather. I sip on water throughout the day, along with bone broth and herbal teas. Bone broth provides minerals that are easy on the stomach, while teas like ginger and chamomile offer extra soothing properties.

5. Nourishing Foods – Fuel Up for Strength 🥗🍲

When my immune system needs a boost, I double down on nutrient-dense foods like leafy greens, berries, and high-protein sources. These foods give my body the vitamins and minerals it needs to function optimally. Plus, they’re easy to digest when I’m feeling a bit sluggish!

6. Light Movement & Stress Management – Gentle Motion to Energize 🚶‍♀️

Even if I don’t feel like working out, a bit of light movement like stretching or a short walk can help increase circulation, boosting my energy and helping me feel a bit more “me.” Gentle movement also helps keep congestion from settling in too deeply. I also love love a good acupressure mat session with deep breathing work to get blood flow going and relax!

7. Holistic Remedies – My Trusted Immunity Arsenal 🌿💧

I always keep a few go-to natural remedies on hand. Here are some of my favorites:

  • Oregano Oil & Beekeeper’s Naturals: Both are natural options for combating cold symptoms.

  • Astragalus tincture & Congestion Blaster Spray: Great for respiratory health and relieving sinus discomfort.

  • Quercetin & Black Seed Oil: Powerful antioxidants to support inflammation response.

  • Vitamin C & D: Essential vitamins to strengthen the immune response.
