Immune-Boosting Green Smoothie | ShinyInna

The immune system is a host defense system comprising many biological structures and processes within an organism that protects against disease. To function properly, an immune system must detect a wide variety of agents, known as pathogens, from viruses to parasitic worms, and distinguish them from the organism's own healthy tissue.

The stronger your immune system is, the less chance you have of getting sick and the faster you can recover if you do. The key to supporting a healthy immune system is actually prevention, and a diet rich in nourishing nutrients is the best thing you can do to fight against pathogens, alongside maintaining good hygiene and exercising regularly.

Green Smoothies are actually a great way to make sure that you are eating all the nutrients that your body needs; I suggest you to check Green Smotthie for Beginners.


SPINACH AND BANANA

  • 1 cup spinach
  • 1 cup green tea
  • 1 bananas
  • 1 small piece of fresh ginger (peeled)
  • 1 apple 
  • 1 one squeezed lemon


Why it works

  • Spinach is loaded with antioxidants that shield immune cells from environmental damage and encourage the production of bacteria-busting white blood cells. In addition, the antioxidants in spinach protect the enzymes that repair DNA damage, thereby enhancing your body’s ability to rejuvenate itself
  • Research suggests that green tea will help keep illnesses at bay at this winter.
  • Bananas have 30% of the recommended daily intake of vitamin B-6, which is needed to make very important proteins for the immune system 
  • Lemon contains powerful antioxidants, fights bacteria, cleanses toxins and is rich in vitamins.
  • Ginger has multiple properties to address various illnesses, eliminate tonic, clear your nasal cavities, regulate body temperature and can also act as a decongestant.
  • Being rich in so many nutrients, apples can boost your immune system and keep you free from infections. In particular, a flavonoid called quercetin has been shown to significantly improve your immune system.
