Hey folks, it’s Dr. Sam. I thought I’d bring you along on my morning walk today. I received the question: what are the top five foods that help boost the immune system?
- Number 5: is basil. This refreshing herb helps chelate mercury and is called an adaptogenic because it helps reduce stress and create more balance.
- Number 4: is green tea. We know that green tea is packed with antioxidants that help neutralize free radicals.
- Number 3: is ginger. One of the best anti-inflammatory agents and that also helps support our digestive system.
- Number 2: is Brussel sprouts, cabbage, and cauliflower. The phytochemicals in these vegetables help reduce autoimmune disease.
- Number 1: is garlic. Garlic contains sulfur, which unlocks the power of glutathione.
