preempted by COVID-19’s arrival, park closures and the sensible imperative for social distancing.
While you won’t be able to enjoy a local community workday this spring, you could participate in a
coordinated effort to advance awareness of the basic principles behind the Earth Day movement.
Here’s text from a global call to action distributed by the Earth Day Network:
“On April 22nd, we mobilize – digitally.

A big part of the equation about a healthy immune system is a healthy happy gut. A great way to maintain
a healthy gut is by eating plenty of fermented foods such as kimchi and sauerkraut. Garlic, ginger, turmeric and
herbs such as echinacea and goldenseal have long histories of being used as immune system boosters.
4. Exercise
Another excellent and important way to boost your immune system and maintain great health is by getting
plenty of exercise. Assuming you are healthy and haven’t been advised by your doctor to avoid exercise, it is
recommended to mix aerobic, resistance and burst training. Even fairly short sessions a day can have a huge
impact on you, improving cardiovascular health and circulation, building muscle mass, improving bone density,
losing unwanted body fat, reducing stress and improving your mood and mental clarity.
5. Minimize Stress
Minimize and handle stress, both chemical and psychological/emotional. In this modern world, we are
bombarded with toxic burden from our environment and products that we use and consume. Try to make some
informed choices about what you are touching, breathing and consuming every day. Avoiding foods that have
been sprayed with herbicides and/or pesticides is a great place to start. The dirty dozen and clean-15 list provides
good guidelines for making informed decisions on which foods should always be organic or avoided.
Now is a good time to become aware of any food sensitivities you may have. A good way to do this is with
elimination-diet. Gluten and dairy are some common ones that put stress on many people’s immune systems.
Take a look at what chemicals are in your skin products, toiletries, household cleaning products, packaging,
cans and bottles (BPA), dry cleaning, etc.
Try to minimize exposure to industrial chemicals at work and things you may handle often such as receipts,
and always be aware of what you are breathing and touching.
In Hawai‘i, it is traditional to take off your shoes when entering a home. This is a very good practice that helps
minimize bringing toxic residues into the house.
It goes without saying that alcohol, cigarettes and most drugs are terrible for your immune system and health
in general.
I believe psychological/emotional stress has as big impact on your general health and immune system as well
as nutrition and exercise.
Adopt a meditation practice or something such as tai chi, chi gong, yoga, dance, connected breathing or the

Kaua‘i Take Out
and Delivery Service
By Léo Azambuja
Many restaurants on Kaua‘i have switched to take-out and delivery only in order to
comply with government orders to fight the spread of COVID-19. But with procedures
changing on a daily basis, it can be difficult to stay informed. So a local girl came
up with a clever idea: a virtual group in the world’s largest social media site, where
information about local restaurants can be easily found.
“Locals love to eat,” said Emily Manuel, creator of Kaua‘i Take Out and Delivery
Service group on Facebook. “Food is comforting. Eating is important for us; it’s part of
our culture.”
With Kaua‘i going into a lockdown and a nightly curfew, Emily was wondering how
restaurants would be able to get information to the public on how they are adapting
to the new rules. She also noticed restaurants and community members were asking
the same questions on Facebook.
“I realized everyone was having the same concerns,” Emily said. So on March 19,
the day before Kaua‘i went into a nightly curfew imposed by Mayor Derek Kawakami, Contributed photo
she created the Facebook group. In only a few days, the group’s membership swelled
to more than 2,500 people. Kauai Beer Co.’s Baked Ono Platter, served with macadamia nut crusted ono, sautéed kale and

restaurants are offering. It’s a completely free resource created just for the community handcrafted beer in Hawai‘i.
and local food-service businesses.
Several restaurants joined the group. The information comes from them, and
also from members. It’s an interactive page, with constant updates on the island’s
restaurants.
It turns out, she said, people were not just providing information, but also help.
One of the group members donated $100 in coffee credit to patrons at Ha Coffee shop
in Lihu‘e, and on the next day, he did the same thing for patrons looking for poke
at Fish Expres in Lihu‘e. Imua Roasters also donated a bunch of coffee to frontline
responders.
“That’s what I love,” Emily said. “I saw the responses from the community, and
they’re all willing to help each other.”
The information shared on the group wasn’t limited to restaurant services. Emily
posted food-safety guidelines. Ron Wiley from Kong Radio shared information on free
meals for kids at various schools. Kaua‘i Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Mark
Perriello posted that he partnered with the County of Kaua‘i and Mayor Kawakami to
create an online interactive map of restaurants doing take out and delivery.
“It’s just really great that everyone is doing a such a great job sharing resources and
information. It’s such a positive environment,” Emily said. “It’s been such a blessing for
me to watch all these people come together to help each other; it was more than what
I expected.”
When it comes to a crisis, the community on Kaua‘i always pulls together, she said.
We are used to natural disasters here. But this is a different kind of disaster, happening
on a global scale, and we are having to fend for our own community. None of us have
experienced this before, and everyone is on the same boat trying to figure out what to
do, how to survive, she said.
Yet, everyone is looking for ways to stay positive.
“Kaua‘i is such a great community to live in, especially in times like these,” Emily Contributed photo
