How to Build Up My Immune System Against Warts

Warts are unsightly skin irritations caused by the human papiloma virus. Warts are spread through direct contact. They are usually found on the hands, feet, knees and elbows. In some instances, they have also been found on nail beds and in the genital area. Warts can be removed several ways, including burning, freezing and chemical peels. However, many have found that after "removal," new warts will emerge. This reemergence of warts on one's body is caused by a weakened immune system.

Instructions

• 1

  Purchase garlic and ecchinacea supplements. Both plants have natural anti-viral properties. Supplements can be found at your local health food or drugstore. Follow the dosage on each supplement's label.

• 2

  Purchase a multivitamin that contains vitamins A and E, as well as zinc and selenium. Most multivitamins will include these vitamins and minerals. However, these vitamins in particular have immune-building properties and help to rebuild damaged cells. Supplements can be found at your local health food or drugstore. Follow the dosage on each supplement's label.

• 3

  Purchase blueberries and add them into your diet. Blueberries are a natural snack rich with antioxidants. Try adding 1 cup of blueberries to your breakfast each morning and eat 1 cup of blueberries as a snack after dinner.

• 4

  Walk. Start by walking for 30 minutes a day. A great time to walk is in the early morning; it will energize you for your day.

• 5

  Avoid refined sugar and complex carbohydrates. Also avoid smoking, drinking, and fast food. If you have been consuming these things on a regular basis, you have also been breaking down your immune system.
