Being a busy mom, it seems like I’m always on the go. Often I’m so busy getting everyone ready, I just have a quick minute to make sure I take care of myself. There are a few ways I make sure I stay my healthy best. One is taking supplements like Ester-C® 1,000 MG supplements for immune support.
The other day I was shopping for supplements at Walmart. (I have favorites when we start trying for another baby, but that’s another post.) While I was there, I saw that the Ester-C® 1,000 MG supplements were on Rollback and grabbed one. I have always found a good Vitamin C supplement can really support my immune system.
As a mom, I always need good support for my immune system. There are just too many people depending on me. These are my TOP FIVE ways to keep up good immune support so I can be my healthy best:
1. WASH YOUR HANDS! – This is most important. My kids wash their hands when they get to school and when they come home. It really has helped protect all of our immune systems.
2. Take Daily Supplements – One serving daily of 1000 mg of Ester-C® delivers up to 24-hour immune support 365 days a year. Vitamin C is a great supplement to support your immune system.
3. Eat Right – Fruits and veggies also offer great support to be our healthy best. This why I like to drink a Super Foods Smoothie in the mornings when I’m dropping off my kids to school.
4. Get Enough Sleep – I can’t tell you how important this one is. I recently got my youngest on a great sleep schedule, which has allowed me to get a good night sleep, too. Sleep is when your body heals itself, and getting enough makes a world of difference.
5. Manage Stress – In this busy, multi-tasking world, it’s good to relax. Meditate, take a deep breath, read a favorite book, veg out in front of the television for a few minutes. Letting go of stress is great support for your health.

My mother in law takes Ester C religiously! Immune system is something I’m def trying to build up right now since my toddler continually brings things home from the park!
I usually start my day with a healthful smoothie, but I really need to take supplements, too. Next time I’m in Walmart, I’m going to look for the Ester C. A long walk usually helps me relieve stress, but I have to make myself exercise. 🙂
Oh, the get enough sleep part… it always slips through my hands. This smoothie looks good! Your fruits and veggies are so vibrant – yaye spring!! =)
Phew, that eating right and getting enough sleep is tough! Your smoothies loos amazing though. 🙂
Great tips! I just started adding spinach to some of my smoothies at my daughter’s request (she’s 5). We were both pleasantly surprised by the yummy flavor.
This looks so yummy. I love adding spinach and kale to my smoothies. So good and I get my veggies in that way. Thanks for the great recipe. Cathy
I love these tips – especially the manage stress part! I know as soon as I’m stressed out I start feeling terrible!! Thanks for sharing this awesome smoothies recipe!
Those are some great tips! I need to get more sleep.
I have such a hard time with #5. It seems like I am always stressing about something!
I’m always take this stuff! It’s a must to keep my immune system in check working at our daycare.
I’ve never taken Ester-C but my sisters swear by it. Thank you for the smoothie recipe!
