9 Foods That Will Stengthen Immune System
If your immune system is healthy, your body will throw off ANY Virus. 9 Foods That Will Make Your Immune System Healthy!
Feeding your body certain foods may help keep your immune system strong. If you're looking for ways to prevent winter colds, the flu, and any viruses, your first step should be a visit to your local grocery store.
1. Citrus fruits
Most people turn to vitamin C after they've caught a cold. That’s because it helps build up your immune system. Popular citrus fruits include: Grapefruit, oranges, tangerines, lemons, limes
2. Red bell peppers
If you think citrus fruits have the most vitamin C of any fruit or vegetable, think again. Ounce for ounce, red bell peppers contain twice as much vitamin C as citrus.
3. Broccoli
Broccoli is supercharged with vitamins and minerals. Packed with vitamins A, C, and E, as well as many other antioxidants and fiber, broccoli is one of the healthiest vegetables you can put on your table.
4. Garlic-Garlic is found in almost every cuisine in the world. It adds a little zing to food and it's a must-have for your health.
5. Ginger
Ginger is another ingredient many turn to after getting sick. Ginger may help decrease inflammation, which can help reduce a sore throat and other inflammatory illnesses. Ginger may also help decrease nausea.
6. Spinach
Spinach made our list not just because it's rich in vitamin C. It's also packed with numerous antioxidants and beta carotene, which may increase the infection-fighting ability of our immune systems.
7. Almonds
When it comes to preventing and fighting off colds, vitamin E tends to take a backseat to vitamin C. However, vitamin E is key to a healthy immune system.
8. Green tea - Where green tea really excels is in its levels of epigallocatechin gallate, or EGCG, another powerful antioxidant. EGCG has been shown to enhance immune function.
9. Kiwi
Like papayas, kiwis are naturally full of a ton of essential nutrients, including folate, potassium, vitamin K, and vitamin C. Vitamin C boosts white blood cells to fight infection, while kiwi’s other nutrients keep the rest of your body functioning properly.
2 Chronicles 7:13-14 Living Bible 13 If I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or if I command the locust swarms to eat up all of your crops, or if I send an epidemic among you, 14 then if my people will humble themselves and pray, and search for me, and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear them from heaven and forgive their sins and heal their land.
