How to take care of your immunity?

Temperatures are dropping, the cold is setting in, winter is upon us.
The waltz of colds and other respiratory infections is spreading more and more.

Ravintsara inhibits virus replication and protects the cell from oxidative stress.
Recently published scientific studies demonstrate that its essential oil is one of the most powerful natural antivirals recognized.
At O'Flor, each hydrosol has its own identity card.

We are always amazed by the richness of the aromatic molecules present in these "magical" waters.

They are there, admittedly in small quantities, but the effectiveness of its message is amplified by the water.
The molecules identified in the hydrosol and recognized as anti-viral and anti-bacterial are 1,8 cineole, terpinene-4-ol and ⍺-terpineol.
These wonderful natural molecules are also found in the hydrosol of noble laurel, tea tree, and eucalyptus globulus.
Hydrosols contain the soul, the essence of the plant in its entirety.
Water acts as a messenger for the plant and as we are made up of 80% water, our body is very receptive to it.
Ravintsara hydrosol is your best ally for winter, right from a young age.
You will benefit from its properties:

• anti-virals
• immunostimulants
• antioxidants
• anti-inflammatories

Action on strengthening the body's natural defenses.

3 caps of Ravintsara hydrosol in a bottle of mineral water, to be drunk throughout the day, i.e. 5 days out of 7.

Hydrotherapy is part of a therapy that provides comprehensive and holistic care for the individual.
Hydrosols combine perfectly and act in synergy with phytotherapy, aromatherapy, nutrition, micronutrition, etc.

To take care of your immunity, it is also important to:

• supplement with vitamin D3 (adults, children and babies), vitamin C in its natural form Acerola
• go to bed earlier to optimize the quality of your sleep.

Did you know?
The first consequence of a state of fatigue is a drop in immunity.

• Calm your nervous system, as it works with your immune system to boost defenses. Manage your stress and anxiety
• Visualize the positive and distance yourself from the information and emotions that are disrupting you.

Along with your Ravintsara treatment, add 3 capfuls of Orange Blossom hydrosol per day to your water bottle and/or gourd. It will help you with anxiety and ruminations.

• Walk, take conscious breaths in nature. Enjoy every ray of sunshine.
• Cleanse your liver with Equalibra Detox hydrosol, as a 7-day treatment every winter month to support immunity and/or post-vaccination.

At the same time, opt for a frugal diet (less sugar, less alcohol, eliminate dairy products), a low-toxic and colorful diet, rich in antioxidants and minerals.
Eat hot, it's time for soups with seasonal root vegetables.

• Avoid intensive sport, especially in the evening, and opt for gentler activities such as yoga, Do-IN, Tai Chi Chuan, relaxation and sophrology.

• Stay hydrated even in winter!

To do this, alongside the Ravintsara hydrosol or alternately, add either the Noble Laurel hydrosol , Linalool Thyme or Globular Eucalyptus hydrosol.
As a reminder, they all contain ⍺-terpineol, a recognized antiviral and immunostimulant.

To your good health,
