ST FRANCIS EXTERIOR CLEANING & PAINTING Dean Zonneveld +27 73 4694037 admin@mbgsafety.co.za St Francis Drive, St Francis Bay, 1632

Did you know that the high pressure cleaners use up to 80% less water per minute than a garden hose? This is because we make use of special nozzles to speed up the cleaning process. As far as possible we avoid using non-biodegradable chemicals and those which may be harmful to people, wildlife, insects or vegetation.

Communication

Happy or not, we want to know. If we can improve our service to you in any way we would like you in any way we would like you to speak to us openly and we will do our best to make sure you are a very happy client.

YOUR SUPPORT IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!

WAYS TO BOOST YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM Boosting your immune system is a bit harder to accomplish than you may think - and for good reason. Your immune system is incredibly complex. From a cold to the flu to COVID-19, it has to be strong enough and sophisticated enough to fight off a variety of illnesses and infections.

STAY UP-TO-DATE ON RECOMMENDED VACCINES Building a strong immune system starts with taking advantage of the best way we have to protect ourselves from harmful illnesses: vaccines.

Your immune system is smart, but vaccines train it to be even smarter - helping it learn how to recognize and fight off certain disease-causing illnesses. It's much safer for your immune system to learn via vaccination than through infection with these harmful germs. It's important to be up-to-date on recommended vaccinations, especially your COVID-19 vaccine or booster as well as your annual flu shot.

MAINTAIN A HEALTHY DIET As with most things in your body, a healthy diet is key to a strong immune system. This means making sure you eat plenty of vegetables, fruits, legumes, whole grains, lean protein and healthy fats. In addition to providing your immune system the energy it needs, a healthy diet can help ensure you're getting sufficient amounts of the micronutrients that play a role in maintaining your immune system.

EXERCISE REGULARLY A physical activity is an important part of being healthy and supporting a healthy immune system. One way exercise may improve immune function is by boosting your overall circulation, making it easier for immune cells and other infection-fighting molecules to travel more easily throughout your body.

HYDRATE, HYDRATE, HYDRATE Water plays many important roles in your body, including supporting your immune system. Lymph, which carries important infection-fighting immune cells around your body, is largely made up of water. Being dehydrated slows down the movement of lymph, sometimes leading to an impaired immune system.

GET PLENTY OF SLEEP Sleep certainly doesn't feel like an active process, but there are plenty of important things happening in your body when you're not awake.

For instance, important infection-fighting molecules are created while you sleep.
