Boost your immune system to achieve glowing skin
By Jill O'Donoghue from Killarney Toning and Beauty Studio
You know that old saying "we are what we eat" well that couldn't be more true.

Now more than ever we are aware that having a strong immune system helps us stay strong to fight off any nasty viruses, colds etc. If you're feeling boosted and have a strong, supported immune system, your skin will get an extra glow too.
A good skincare routine morning and night, for both men and women, also helps.
This autumn boost your skin from the inside by drinking plenty of water; it's recommended having eight glasses a day. Also, eat as much fruit and vegetables every day; blueberries, pears and apples have an anti-inflammatory effect on the body.
Vitamins C is highly important as it helps decrease inflammation and supports the production of white blood cells which helps the body to fight infection. Good sources are oranges, grapefruit, tangerines, lemons and limes. Red peppers have the most amount of Vitamins C.
Hibiscus tea has been known for its powerful healing properties, it's an antioxidant which helps repair damaged cells. Top vegetables are broccoli, sweet potatoes, spinach, asparagus, red peppers, carrots, kale, brussels sprout, chickpeas and mushrooms.
Top herbs and spices are garlic, turmeric, cinnamon, oregano and thyme.
Try to make a few changes to help support your immune system. When you feel better on the inside you will glow on the outside.

Spa GAA has finalised a deal with Cork-based renewable firm ePower to install two electric vehicle (EV) charging points at its club grounds in Killarney.
The move makes the club one of the very first GAA organisations in County Kerry to provide dedicated, on-site charging infrastructure for drivers.
The dual-socket units will be situated directly within the club’s main car park, offering charging accessibility to members, visiting supporters, and patrons.
The new ePower facilities are designed to support local EV drivers and visitors traveling to the club’s various sporting events throughout the season.
Ukrainian Olympian joins parkrun for annual Chestnut Run
It is not every day an Olympian joins the Killarney parkrun, but participants had exactly that experience last Saturday, when two-time Ukrainian Olympic skeleton racer Vladyslav Heraskevych joined the event at Killarney House and Gardens.
Heraskevych completed the 5km route alongside members of both the local and Ukrainian communities as part of the annual Ukrainian Chestnut Run. The charity tradition originated in Kyiv 33 years ago and has been organised locally by the Killarney Ukrainian community for the past four years.
The athlete previously captured global attention at the 2026 Winter Games in Milan-Cortina with his “Helmet of Memory” tribute to fallen athletes.
His appearance in Killarney was part of a week-long tour of athletic and educational centres across south-west Ireland. He spent Friday night in Tralee ahead of the Saturday morning run. During his stay in the region, Heraskevych visited the MTU Tralee campus to meet with students, researchers, and local representatives to discuss sports diplomacy, sustainability, and inclusive sports.
