Top 10 Natural Foods and Diets for Better Health and Immunity

Our immune system does a remarkable job of defending us against disease-causing micro-organisms. Hence, keeping our immune system healthy is very important. Feeding the body with certain foods may help keep our immune system strong because what we eat majorly influences our health. In Ayurved, a healthy immune system refers to a healthy body, mind and spiritual being.  Ayurvedic medicine for health begins with a balanced diet and a balance of energies. Organic fruits, whole grains, legumes, light dairy products are the best ayurvedic medicine for immunity building.

10 natural foods and diets that can help you get better health and boost your immune system:

Adopt healthy living strategies:

  • The first line of defense is always to opt for a healthy lifestyle. Making these small changes can help you protect your body from environmental assaults:
  • Minimizing stress through meditation
  • Incorporating fruits and vegetables into your diet
  • Getting adequate sleep
  • Exercising regularly for a minimum of 15-20 minutes

Eating Probiotic- Rich food to boost immunity:

Probiotics are bacteria that live in our gut and help in stimulating the immune system and maintaining the health of the gut’s lining. Great sources of probiotics are Buttermilk, Yogurt, Kombucha and fermented pickles.

Citrus fruits to boost immunity:

Fruits such as oranges and grapefruits are high in vitamin C, a well-known immunity booster. Vitamin C acts as an antioxidant which is likely to lower risks of infection and can speed up your recovery from ailments. Other great citrus rich foods are lime, tangerine, clementine, and lemon.

Iron-Rich foods to boost immunity:

Iron is a mineral that plays an important role in immune function. A diet containing too little iron can contribute to anemia and weaken the immune system. It’s advantageous to consume iron-rich foods like poultry, fish, legumes, and dry fruits.

Sweet Potatoes to boost immunity:

Not only delicious but also rich in Vitamin A. Sweet potatoes help improve the body’s response to certain vaccines and help fight disease-causing bacteria. Besides sweet potatoes, foods that are high in vitamin A include carrots, dark-green leafy vegetables, squash, lettuce, dried apricots, and organ meats.

Garlic to boost immunity:

Consuming two to three cloves of fresh garlic per day may help boost your immune system. Garlic is effective at reducing the symptoms and duration of the common cold and flu as well.

Ginger to boost immunity:

Making ginger a regular part of your life by simply adding a sprinkle of fresh or dried ginger to your dishes or smoothies or sipping on a fresh ginger infusion, can help decrease the risk of infections and nausea.

Coconut Oil to boost immunity:

Coconut fats help fight off the type of bacteria that cause stomach ulcers, sinusitis, dental cavities, food poisoning and urinary tract infections. Replacing it with butter and vegetable oil for cooking and baking can help your body in the long run.

Nuts and Seeds to boost immunity:

Nuts are incredibly rich in nutrients which play a very important role in the functioning of the body. Almonds and sesame seeds are particularly the best sources of copper and vitamin E, while pumpkin seeds and cashews are rich in zinc.
