Why you should prioritise sleep right now

A good night’s sleep is vital for optimal health. Sleep is vital for regeneration of all aspects of our bodies and during sleep the body clears out the waste products from the day’s activities – especially in the brain. Although one night of poor sleep is not harmful, continued lack of sleep or poor-quality sleep can influence our health in many ways.

Optimising your health during the coronavirus ...

I have seen a myriad of posts claiming ways to boost your immune system. First, no-one is actually allowed to claim that their product or technique can boost the immune system, and secondly, what does that mean anyway? An over-active immune system is just as undesirable as an under-active one. We want our immune systems to work as they are intended by reacting appropriately.

When the immune system goes wrong: autoimmunity

We round up my overview of the immune system and what goes wrong with autoimmunity. The immune system attacking our own bodies is both surprisingly common and perhaps surprisingly rare given the power of the immune system to make antibodies to just about any protein shape.

The immune system: a primer (part 2)

The adaptive immune system creates a system that reacts only to a particular pathogen (a pathogen is any disease-causing organism) and creates an ‘immune memory’ enabling the immune system to swing into action very quickly if the pathogen is encountered again.

The immune system: a primer (part 1)

With the all talk of antigen tests, antibodies, cytokine storm and so on surrounding coronavirus, I thought it could be useful to give you a brief primer on the immune system.

5 ways to improve resilience

Resilience: the ability to recover from difficulties. We all need to promote resilience right now – to infection, to stress, to financial troubles, to social isolation. While I can’t coach you in how to be financially resilient, I can give you some pointers towards improving resilience to infection and stress.

Are you a kitchen adventurer?

When we can’t (or would rather not) go food shopping very often – or be sure that all the foods we would like will be in stock – being flexible could be a big advantage and may reduce the stress of trying to create our usual meals against the odds.
