Episode 2932: Dr. Neal shares how to truly strengthen your immune system during cold and flu season, emphasizing foundational habits over trendy supplements. He explains how proper nutrition, regular exercise, sleep, and a healthy gut all work together to keep your defenses strong, especially in winter climates like Minnesota’s. Quotes to ponder: "Pretty much all of the vitamins and minerals have some role in keeping the immune system working at its best but some are more involved than others."
