    Immunity against virus

    April 18, 2020 - By Aziza Ahmed Paula

    The best way of preventing corona virus or any seasonal flu for that matter, is to boost your immune system. You will not get a robust immune system only from food, this is a lifestyle that people need to practice. A cycle of good food habit, good routine and exercise can only benefit you in boosting immune system. I here try to follow the nature, the natural clock, as in the night is to sleep, the mornings and noons are to work and evenings are to rest and chill.

    December 4, 2015 - By Aziza Ahmed Paula
