Eating a balanced diet and getting plenty of physical activity can help reduce your risk of developing chronic illnesses. Aim to focus on healthy foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains and to get at least 150 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity each week. In addition, managing stress through regular exercise, mindfulness, or relaxation exercises can help keep your immune system functioning at its best.
