Garlic

Garlic is a super immunity-boosting food with only 4 calories per clove, while one clove contains 5mg of calcium, 12mg of potassium and more than 100 sulfuric ompounds, which makes garlic powerful enough to wipe out bacteria and infection in a flu season. Raw garlic is most beneficial. Don’t miss out other super uses of garlic, read my previous article about how to use garlic in the garden.

Lemon

Lemon juice makes your body less susceptible to illness, as it contains several antioxidants and vitamin C, which can improve the immune system. Besides, drink lemon juice will help to raise the body’s internal PH. The human body pH ideally should be in the range of 6.5 to 7.5. Because of an overabundance of processed non-nutritive, chemical-laden foods, most people are very acidic. It is in this acidic environment pH and cancer is linked.  Cancer cells grow rapidly in the presence of an acidic pH. It’s recommended to drink lemon juice regularly to balance the levels of PH in the body.

Honey

The antioxidant and anti-bacterial properties of honey can help improve digestive system and help you stay healthy and prevent illness. Add 1-2 tablespoon of raw honey to warm water, drink it every morning will improve your immune system effectively. It’s also good at relieving the cold and flu systems, such as dry coughs,sore throat and congestion.

Cayenne Pepper

The cayenne pepper spice is full of antioxidants and beta carotene, which are very good for your immune system. It also assists in building healthy tissues for the body’s mucous membranes, which are the body’s first defense against viruses and bacteria.
