What To Do If You Start Feeling Sick

Starting to Feel Sick

We all know that feeling…when we get the scratchy throat, beginning of a cough, or just feel really low energy.

For most of us, this could be the beginning of a cold or some other type of illness, and it always seems to occur most often when we leave home on a business trip! Why is that?

Stress is one of the biggest contributors to chronic (and acute) illness as it makes it more difficult for our immune system to respond, and stress is definitely involved when it comes to business travel.

The most important things to do as soon as you feel a little off are:

1. Act immediately – you have to catch it early
2. Drink lots of filtered water
3. Avoid foods with sugar, dairy and wheat (REALLY important!)
4. Use immune boosting supplements and oils – to aid your body’s defense
5. Rest as much as possible
6. See a doctor if necessary

One of the key things I stress in my consulting is the need to prepare for these types of events. The more preparation you do, the less stress.

In this case, if you have packed the supplements ahead of time, then it won’t matter if you are at the airport or in another country, as you’ll have what you need to help your body fight this off

Stay well!
