Avoid The Flu... With Superfoods!

Not only are breakouts of the flu responsible for depleting the workforce, with millions of hours, just lost, while the sick are at home suffering & trying to recover. But, beyond even that... Over 30,000 people die of the flu, every year!

Now, with the emergence of the Swine Flu... It seems like the media is trying to scare the heck out of everybody (what else is new), with the "consequences" of not getting vaccinated, especially if you have a weakened immune system.

And, that's where Superfoods come in... We need to build our immune systems up, so we don't have to worry about these nasty viruses attacking our bodies and making us feel like crap. Or worse...

Boosting your immune system, so that your bodies defenses are their best, is probably the best way to avoid the flu, for good! And recent research is telling us, that doing it naturally, is the way to go. Making sure you are eating a proper diet of nutrient dense fruits & vegetables, complex carbs, plenty of (low fat) proteins. Supplements just don't pack the same punch. Neither does taking a shot of Nyquill!!!

What we need to do is make sure we are getting all of the nutrients our bodies actually need. Vitamin C is a critical part of keeping your immune system healthy. But, instead of drinking orange juice by the gallon, which is very acidic... We can opt for something like the Camu Camu Berry, which is the highest natural source of vitamin C, on the planet - At least that we know about. Making this an excellent choice as your source for natural vitamin C & an excellent aid to your immune system. Oh yeah, don't forget about your brussel sprouts, they are loaded with vitamin C.

Next... Ever hear of the Reishi Mushroom? It is one of the most revered herbs in Chinese medicine... And, another excellent way to strengthen your immune system. Make some as tea (tonic), or throw some in the next batch of chicken soup with some goji berries (more antioxidents than blueberries & green tea combined) and fighting the flu will soon be a thing of the past!

Brewing up some tea with Cats Claw & Nettle and not only do an amazing addition to your immune system boosters, it's pretty good for your bones.

By changing our diets, to include immune boosting foods is an excellent way to prevent the flu... And, all those other miserable "preventable viruses." Imagine being so healthy, you can't catch the flu.
