To defend ourselves from the elements, and unfortunately (now) the Covid-19, we need to prepare the immune system during the winter months.But also from other unexpected daily situations.

Annette Hess, associate professor in Samford University, says that we can help immune system by taking more vitamins like zinc and vitamin C. She also suggest to first consulting with your doctor/GP about adding these supplements to your daily diet.

Kiwi Fruit Factoids

We found that there are some inconclusive studies about the Kiwi’s overall health benefits. But it seems that it also protects our DNA. However, it’s known to us that there are certain compounds in the kiwi fruit that gives us this ultra protective antioxidant with massive healing properties.

You’ll mostly benefit from other nutrients most commonly known with kiwi fruit such as:

  • vitamin C
  • vitamin K
  • vitamin E
  • potassium
  • fibre


Powerful smoothie booster variation

You can also replace the spinach with broccoleaf or Kale if you have it. Depending on where you are you could use pineapple fruit, as it contains high levels of vitamin C and manganese, this fruit has good amount of vitamin B in it.

Keep the daily goodness in for longer with this super delicious immune booster.

Let us know which version you enjoyed the most. 🙂
