Short YouTube video by Peter Szabo (uploaded Apr 22, 2020) offering three practical tips to strengthen immunity during the COVID-19 pandemic: (1) reduce excess stress because chronic stress increases cortisol/insulin and can weaken immunity — recommends relaxation techniques and a named method "memory flipping"; (2) focus on basics (clean diet, regular exercise, adequate sleep); and (3) follow public-health precautions (CDC guidance: social distancing, avoid gatherings, wash hands). The video closes with empathy and encouragement.
