4. Practice Healthy Sleep Habits

According to Harvard Medical School, about 70 million Americans suffer from chronic sleep issues. Inadequate sleep is considered anything less than 7 hours of uninterrupted sleep per night. Between stressors brought on by work and modern dependency on blue-light devices, the average person consistently gets less sleep than they should. When unhealthy sleep habits develop, proper immune functions become compromised and the body will experience a rise in proinflammatory substances. Some healthy sleep tips include sticking to a consistent sleep schedule, avoiding electronic devices at least 30 minutes before bedtime, and keeping your room quiet, cold and dark.
