The immune system in our body is a wonderful thing, it protects us from bacteria and viruses that enter our bodies, it fights off infections and develops antibodies and remembers viruses that it fights so next time it is already prepared, it is like a highly effective army ready to fight off the ‘bad guys’ when they attack. Good nutrition and healthy lifestyle choices are essential to building strong immunity.
Immune system booster foods – Cranberries
Cranberries are rich in various healthy vitamins. Many people consider cranberries to be a superfood due to their high nutrient and antioxidant content, the prevention of certain types of cancer, improved immune function, and decreased blood pressure. Cranberries as sauce, juice or even dried can all give you some of cranberry’s immune boosting help. But for best effects, look for recipes with minimal refined sugar, sweetened with other fruits or fruit juices instead.
