GBNEWS24 DESK//

If nothing else, the ongoing coronavirus scare has taught us the importance of immunity. How important it is to keep our immunity up in order to save ourselves from various infections and viruses is something we’ve all understood the hard way this year. And now that we know, we are always looking for various ways to boost our immunity and have perhaps tried everything on the internet. Immunity is something that we gradually develop and our diet plays a huge role in it. And a diet full of local produce is the best pick if you are looking to fight cold, flu and viruses. While medicines have their own role to play, a diet with plenty of fruits and vegetables can help build resistance in the body. A combination of vegetables like carrots with citrus fruits such as orange makes for a great DIY immunity booster.

 

Tangy, tarty and citrusy, oranges are an excellent source of vitamin C and antioxidants that help fight free radical activity. Carrot too is a superfood, enriched with vitamin A and antioxidants like beta carotenes. Couple these with apples that also come loaded with vitamin C and antioxidants. The combination of these three superfoods makes for a winning one to protect our body from infections.
