The cold season is here — school germs are flying, holiday parties are stacking up, and your immune system is working overtime.

In this episode, we’re diving into how to actually support your immunity (and energy) in real life — not just with vitamin C packets and wishful thinking.

We’ll break down the functional nutrition side of immune resilience — what happens to your metabolism, gut lining, and recovery when stress, sugar, and sleep deprivation collide — and how key nutrients like amino acids, creatine, collagen, and colostrum each play a role in protecting your system from the inside out.

You’ll learn:
 💪 Why amino acids are the foundation for immune cell and muscle repair
 🍼 How colostrum helps defend against your kids’ classroom germs
 ⚡ The connection between creatine, brain fog, and immune resilience
 🧬 When to use collagen for gut + mucosal protection during high stress
 🌿 And how to combine them smartly depending on your season of life (busy mom, brain fatigue, fat loss, or recovery mode)

If you’re ready to stay healthy through the chaos — from field trips to holiday dinners — this one’s your immune season survival guide, Backyard Health style.
