No one will protect you better than yourself.
There are actions to take, food to eat, practices to maintain that won’t cost a thing; just your time and they are definitely worth it.
Let’s get started:
Stop smoking: Because people who do have higher chances of being exposed to any infection, Coronavirus inclusive.
Sleep well: it is important to allow your body to fight for itself, which is possible when you sleep adequately.
Make sure you are having the right amount of exercise. You might not need to hit the gym; a brisk walk in the morning or evening will do.
Eat a lot of fruits and vegetables. This cannot be overemphasised. Make smoothies from fruits if you want something different, make a salad with your vegetables when you do not want to cook them.
