Hello there. Welcome back. Hope you all are doing great. This time, I would like to share

10 foods that boost our immune system.

Why is the immune system important?

Our immune system is essential for our survival. Without an immune system, our bodies

would be open to attack from bacteria, viruses, parasites, and more. It is our immune

system that keeps us healthy as we drift through a sea of pathogens.

Therefore, we should take care of our immune system by eating healthy foods and staying

healthy.

  • Citrus fruits

Almost all citrus fruits are rich in vitamin C which s thought to increase the

production of white blood cells, which are key to fighting infections.

  • Red bell peppers

They are a rich source of vitamin C and beta carotene which is good not only for

the immune system but also for eyes and skin.

  • Broccoli

It is packed with vitamin A, C and E, as well as fibers and other antioxidants. 

  • Garlic

It adds a little zing to food and it’s a must-have for your health.

  • Ginger

Ginger may help decrease inflammation, which can help reduce a sore throat and

inflammatory illnesses. Ginger may help with nausea as well.

  • Green tea

Both green and black teas are packed with flavonoids, a type of antioxidant. It is

also a good source of the amino acid and L-theanine may aid in the production of

germ-fighting compounds in your T cells.

  • Papaya

It has vitamin C and decent amounts of potassium, magnesium, and folate, all of

which are beneficial to your overall health.

  • Poultry

Poultry, such as chicken and turkey, is high in vitamin B-6 which is  an important

player in many of the chemical reactions that happen in the body. It’s also vital to

the formation of new and healthy red blood cells.

  • Yogurt

Yogurt can also be a great source of vitamin D which helps regulate the immune system

and is thought to boost our body’s natural defences against diseases.

  • Spinach

It’s rich in vitamin C and also packed with numerous antioxidants and beta carotene,

which may both increase the infection-fighting ability of our immune systems.

Hope this helps you and have a great time.
