We often think of “getting sick” as bad luck. But in December, high stress levels, lack of sleep, and poor diet can significantly suppress your immune system, leaving the door wide open for viruses.
The “Let Down” Effect
Have you ever noticed you get sick the moment you finally relax? This is a common phenomenon where your body’s fight-or-flight response drops, and your immune system crashes.
Listen to Your Body
If you feel run down, achy, or unusually fatigued, don’t push through. These are early warning signs. A Sickday house call can provide an early assessment, catching an illness before it becomes a full-blown crisis.
Prioritize sleep, stay hydrated, and know that if your immune system falters, we are standing by to help pick you up.
