Check Out These Three Healthy Drinks That Will Pump Up Your Immune System

Did you know that engaging in movement daily, consuming nourishing foods, and de-stressing with different hobbies you take joy in are all activities that can help you avoid sickness? The same goes for these hydrating beverages that feature key vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

Ginger Shots

Ginger is known for its many health benefits, including stimulating digestion, positively affecting cholesterol levels, and reducing nausea and inflammation. One study even found ginger carries anti-viral properties. Plus, ginger is a powerful antioxidant that protects cells from oxidative stress and damage, then cells are more resilient and able to carry out immune-boosting functions.

Green Tea

Green tea contains several plant compounds called flavonoids, which act as antioxidants. In particular, green tea is rich in epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), countering the disease-causing effects of free radicals and reducing inflammation. One popular form of green tea is matcha. Since matcha powder uses whole tea leaf, it’s higher in antioxidants.

Turmeric Latte

A popular Indian spice, turmeric is lauded for its anti-inflammatory properties. The curcumin in it can help cure colds, fight disease, and settle upset stomachs. Try making this golden turmeric latte, which features cinnamon, ginger, coconut milk, and black pepper, which helps the body absorb the herb’s nutritional benefits.
