Boost your immunity with Apple Kuzu

At this time of year, many of us tend to fall victim of the typical flu that’s going around and when it hits us, we either think, “I wish I would’ve taken care of my immune system a bit more to have avoided getting sick”, or “what can I take to get rid of these symptoms?” The best thing you can do to avoid getting sick in the first place is eating a diet rich in vitamins and minerals, especially vitamin A, B, C, E, iron, copper and zinc, as well as take care of your gut health, as 70% of the immune system is based there, and sleep well every night.

If you’ve been unlucky and caught the flu, all of these rules apply as well. However, you have to make an extra effort to boost the immunity in order to fight it off as soon as possible.

Whether you want to strengthen your immune system or fight off a cold, we recommend having a daily dose of our secret recipe at SHA Wellness Clinic: Apple Kuzu.
