Load Up on This Winter Immune Booster NOW
As we head into fall and winter, there are plenty of nutrients you’ll want to make sure you’re loading up on to stay healthy.
The top ones to boost your immune health include vitamin D, zinc, iron, and B vitamins.
But if you’re like me, you want to get the most bang for your buck.
This next nutrient can not only reduce your cold and flu risk, but it can also help you look younger and fight back conditions like heart disease in the process.
Vitamin C is best known for supporting a healthy immune system.
It strengthens your immune cells, increases white blood cell production, combats inflammation, and protects against free radical damage.
As a result, studies show that vitamin C helps reduce the length and severity of cold symptoms.
Those alone are powerful reasons to get plenty of vitamin C.
But its benefits don’t stop there.
- Vitamin C protects your body from free radicals that can damage your cells and increase your risk of cancer, heart disease, and more.
- Vitamin C also helps your body produce more collagen, making it a powerful ally against skin aging and promoting wound healing.
- Plus, vitamin C is excellent for heart health and could even help lower blood pressure levels.
Your body doesn’t make its own C, so you need to regularly load up on it in your diet to ensure it has plenty at its disposal when needed.
Citrus fruits are a good source of vitamin C, but they’re far from the only one. You can also get lots of C from berries, tomatoes, leafy green vegetables, peppers, cabbage, and more.
P.S. Warning… this common nighttime habit could be DESTROYING your immune system.
