2. Stay hydrated

Drinking adequate amounts of water is important for the body to function properly and prevents you from dehydration and carries nutrients and oxygen to your cells. Hydration by way of drinking water before the vaccine contributes to your well-being and that’s what Bipasha suggested.

3. Consume zinc-rich foods

Bipasha specifically advised that “take your zinc supplement or eat zinc-rich foods such as flax, pumpkin seeds, almonds, walnuts, sesame seeds, eggs, legumes, lentils, dairy, poultry, whole grains, fruits, veggies.”

This is an important point as zinc deficiency adversely affects the growth and functioning of immunity enhancing cells. Zinc rich foods boost immunity, lower blood pressure, improve oxygen levels, fight inflammation, improve digestive health and support brain health.

In the end, Bipasha also highlighted the Placebo and nocebo effect of “no fear”.  On getting the vaccine, she added “take it with faith or belief, no point imagining the worst and expecting the best. Intend for it to be safe and work for you in the best way possible in divine order and your highest good – that’s all!”
