Although winter is coming to a close, cold and flu season is still threatening our immune systems.
Staying healthy is a marriage of several simple practices, according to Dr. Roger Seheult, a critical care physician, pulmonologist and associate clinical professor at the University of California and Loma Linda University schools of medicine.
Following an appearance on the Huberman Lab podcast, hosted by neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Huberman, Seheult joined Fox News Digital for an on-camera interview to discuss how to boost the immune system.

Seheult offered an acronym to remember a few immune-boosting methods: NEWSTART.
«NEWSTART is not only beneficial for not getting the flu this season,» he said. «It’s exactly the same answer for how to live a long and healthy life, how to live without disease and chronic disease.»

A New Mexico adult infected with measles has died, state officials said Thursday.
The death comes eight days after an unvaccinated child in Texas died from the disease during a growing outbreak in the state that has infected nearly 160 people.
The adult was not vaccinated and didn’t seek medical help before dying, although the cause of death is still under investigation.
The victim lived just across the state line from the west Texas region where the outbreak is centered.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE MEASLES OUTBREAK
«We don’t want to see New Mexicans getting sick or dying from measles,» Dr. Chad Smelser, deputy state epidemiologist, said. «The measles-mumps-rubella vaccine is the best protection against this serious disease.»
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said earlier this week it would send a team to help respond to the outbreak in Texas.
The adult is the 10th person in Lea County, New Mexico, confirmed to have contracted measles.

Obesity has long been classified as a global epidemic — and new data published in The Lancet journal spotlights how much worse it could get.
A team of researchers found that in 2021, one billion men and 1.11 billion women over 25 years of age worldwide qualified as overweight or obese — twice as many as in 1990.
In 2021, more than half of the world’s overweight and obese adults lived in eight countries: China (402 million), India (180 million), the U.S. (172 million), Brazil (88 million), Russia (71 million), Mexico (58 million), Indonesia (52 million), and Egypt (41 million), according to a press release.
THIS DISEASE KILLS MORE PEOPLE THAN ALL CANCERS AND ACCIDENTS COMBINED
If the increase continues at this same pace, the study projects that more than half (57.4%) of men and 60.3% of women will be overweight or obese by 2050.
The three countries expected to have the highest rates of overweight or obesity by 2050 are China (627 million people), India (450 million) and the U.S. (214 mi..

As measles cases continue to emerge in several U.S. states, treatment and prevention is top of mind.

In a recent Fox News Digital op-ed, HHS secretary RFK Jr. shared his «deep concern» about the measles outbreak and its rapid escalation.

RFK noted that while there is no approved antiviral for measles, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released a statement last week supporting the administration of vitamin A under physician supervision as supportive care.
Previous research published in the International Journal of Epidemiology has shown that vitamin A, in conjunction with the measles vaccine, can be an effective intervention in preventing measles mortality in children.
RFK reiterated the..
