Natural Health Insurance: 3 Proven Immune Boosters
by: Ryan Wilson
As important as it is to make sure you have 'normal' health coverage, it's even more important to increase the amount of 'natural' health insurance you have. After all, if you protect your body now you won't need to worry about paying a big doctor's bill later! One of the best ways to do this is by boosting your immune system and helping your body to fight off disease.
The following tips are some of the most effective methods for boosting your immune system naturally. Each one is absolutely proven to help protect you from a wide array of diseases, including heart disease and cancer. Incorporating them into your lifestyle is one of the easiest ways to 'buy' natural health insurance!
Eat Colorful Vegetables & Fruits
These extremely healthy foods should be the basis of your diet. Eating colorful veggies and fruits is a must if you want to stay healthy for life. They are packed with essential vitamins, minerals, fiber, and phytochemicals that keep your body -- and your immune system -- strong and ready to fight off disease. Choose things like leafy greens, bright red tomatoes, orange grapefruits, yellow peppers, and plump blueberries. Remember, the more colorful your plate is the healthier you're going to be.
Get 8 Hours of Sleep
There is no longer any doubt that lack of sleep affects the immune system and leads to health problems. Several recent studies have shown that getting a good night's sleep can dramatically boost your immune response, while even one night of poor sleep can significantly suppress immune function. The immune system is constantly working, so when we sleep the body is able to 'reinforce' and strengthen it, most likely by producing powerful hormones. Most people need about 8 hours of sleep per night for optimal health so that's a good number to shoot for.
Exercise 6 Days a Week
Exercise is a powerful immune booster, not to mention a very important component of good overall health. Regular, moderate exercise has been shown to lower an individual's likelihood of getting sick. It also boosts natural energy levels while relieving stress at the same time. To top it all off, regular exercise makes it much easier to sleep at night! Just don't overdo it. Too much exercise can actually suppress the immune system. Try to get about 30 to 40 minutes of moderate exercise most days of the week, leaving one day for rest and recovery.
Well, there you go -- 3 powerful and proven ways to boost your immune system and stay healthy. Each of the above are healthy habits which, over time, will provide you with an abundance of natural health insurance. If combined, you'll enjoy great health and wellbeing for a very long time!

International Travel and Health Insurance
David M. Schmader
Embarking on Your Dream Vacation
Are your Plans Complete?
Your bags are packed, passport and papers in order and you couldn’t be in a
higher state of excitement preparing for travel to that wonderful, exotic location.
This is the vacation you have planned it seems forever. As you sit on the plane,
you and your partner discuss for the hundredth time the scuba diving you will
do, the awesome rock climbing and hikes into the rain forest. Everything is
perfect!
Life seldom gets better than this.
Despite all the excitement of travel, Americans do have some concerns.
According to a survey by the Chubb Group, more than 70% of Americans surveyed
said their greatest concern when traveling is suffering a medical emergency...more
than double the fear of being mugged (30.7%), three times the fear of being
injured in a terrorist attack (23.4%).
What happens if a medical emergency arises when traveling overseas?
Many people assume that while they are out of the U.S. or Canada they will be
covered by their standard medical plan. However, most traditional health insurance
plans are not designed for international travel.
According to the U.S. Department of Commerce, approximately 27 million travelers
board U.S. airlines for overseas destinations and almost 26 million foreign
travelers come to the U.S. each year. However, many are not prepared for a medical
emergency abroad.
Most traditional health insurance plans would not cover an unexpected illness
or injury during international travel. But travelers with international medical
insurance would have protection for scenarios ranging from a local ambulance
trip to an emergency evacuation for care at the nearest qualified medical facility.
Some even offer repatriation flights out of the country where the traveler is
located back to the US.
Available plans can cover individuals or groups for specific periods of time
abroad and can be in effect should they be stationed abroad for an extended
period of time. There are policies for corporations to insure their personnel,
plans to cover missionaries who are on an outreach program and for those participating
in extreme sports. International travel medical insurance should be considered
for anyone traveling or living abroad.
