Boost your winter wellness with organic food
As winter comes in with snow and chilly temperatures, we also see more colds and flu cases. During this time, supporting your immune system becomes even more important. By incorporating specific organic snacks into your diet, you can give your immune system an extra boost this winter.
Immune-boosting organic berries
Organic berries are delicious—and packed with immune-boosting antioxidants. Blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries are rich in vitamin C, which can enhance your immune system function. Add a handful of organic berries to your snack routine, and you’ll be treating your taste buds while providing your body with a natural defense against.
Nutrient-rich nuts and seeds
Organic nuts and seeds are nutrient powerhouses that can contribute to your overall health. Almonds, walnuts, and sunflower seeds are excellent sources of:
- Vitamin E
- Zinc
- Healthy fats
All of these play roles in supporting an effective immune system. Snacking on a handful of organic nuts and seeds is a convenient way to give your body the nutrients it needs to stay strong.
Mighty garlic and onions
While not traditionally eaten on their own, organic garlic and onions will boost your immune system and make your food taste great. These aromatic vegetables contain allicin, a compound known for its antimicrobial properties. Consider adding them to dips or spreads for a healthy, flavorful addition to your snacks and meals.
Gut-healthy organic yogurt
A healthy gut contributes to a strong immune system. Organic yogurt, especially those with live and active cultures, can promote gut health. Probiotics found in yogurt support the balance of good bacteria in your digestive system, contributing to overall immune function. Enjoy a cup of organic yogurt with a drizzle of honey and some organic granola for a satisfying snack.
Vitamin-packed organic citrus fruits
Organic citrus fruits like oranges, grapefruits, and tangerines are superstars when it comes to immune support. Filled with vitamin C, these fruits help stimulate the production of white blood cells, which are key players in your body’s defense against infections. Peel and enjoy these fruits as a refreshing and fulfilling snack option.
