Immunity Boosting Recipes
With the days of the lockdown extended but relaxed in a phased manner and an increasing number of COVID positive cases, it is imperative that we work on our infection-fighting ability to fight off the coronavirus if and when faced with it. Keeping ourselves adequately nourished, both the mind and the body, would hugely benefit us.
With limited access to domestic help, we are increasingly spending more time in the kitchen. So why not make this time enjoying family time and whip up nutritious dishes. Without fuming and fretting about it, let’s make the best out of the lockdown and work on modifying our lifestyle.
By including certain nutrients in our diets, we can effectively make ourselves ready to, just in case, face the Coronavirus. Studies have shown that the following nutrients help in boosting our immunity:
Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Vitamin E, Vitamin A, Carotenoids, Zinc, Selenium, Probiotics
Below I have penned down a few recipes with immunity-boosting ingredients to help us sail through this time nutritiously.
