Ouch!

My arm is still smarting from the shot I got yesterday.  Argh.  I do not like shots...but who really does?  I suppose compared to how it used to be for me when it came to getting shots, they are a rather pleasant experience nowadays.  After all, I'm no longer expending all that energy trying to dodge the needle (although it still takes some willpower to resist doing so).

South Korea being the highly-developed country that it is, there are no vaccinations required to travel there.  However, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention does recommend a pre-travel health screening to determine whether certain vaccines might be advisable for an individual prior to their departure.  In my case, I needed to get up-to-date on some routine vaccinations.  The CDC also recommends vaccines in the case of an outbreak of a disease such as Typhoid or Japanese Encephalitis.  If I travel to other countries in Asia, as I am planning to do, it is likely that I will need to get additional shots.  Great.

Now that those shots are behind me, I'm focused on immune system boosting.  Lots of exercise, fruits, veggies, and Vitamin C in my future!  Learn more about natural immune system boosting by clicking here.
