5 Tea Premix Options for Your Immune Health

Any herbal tea or drink may help your body fight off the flu virus. A hot drink during any time in a day is also soothing to your throat and sinuses. You can make a flu-fighting herbal drink (tea) with star anise and other herbs like:

Tulsi

Tulsi is considered as one of the best herbs that boost the immune system. It contains phytochemicals, bioflavonoids, and anti-oxidants compounds, such as rosmarinic acid, which is a very good anti-microbial agent for treating infections in the respiratory region.

 Turmeric

As per Ayurveda, turmeric helps boost immunity, works like an antibiotic against infections, and even has immense healing properties. Turmeric is easily available and is known to add color as well as flavor to food. It also protects the body against heart diseases and improves blood flow.

 Ginger

Ginger is filled with nutritional properties that are very beneficial to your health. It contains chemicals called Sesquiterpene, which targets cold viruses. This spice also has antibacterial properties that can help avoid nausea. The spice's anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties help control the process of aging, aid digestion and demonstrate the potential to treat degenerative disorders, as well as cardiovascular disease. Ginger also contains antimicrobial compounds that allow it to help in treating infectious diseases.

Cloves

Cloves can help reduce inflammation and expel mucus. It helps reduce coughing fits by soothing the throat and boosts immune system function. It contains a high amount of antioxidants, which aid the immune system in fighting off oxidative damage and free radicals. Also can help ease infections and fight disease-causing bacteria in the body.

 Cinnamon

Cinnamon is also been used for its medicinal properties for thousands of years. It fights inflammation and helps prevent infections and heal damaged tissue. Containing large amounts of polyphenol and some studies have shown that it may have anti-diabetic effects and help cut the risk of heart disease.

Add on to taste; sweeten herbal teas with pure honey or jaggery. Honey and other bee products have been found to have natural antiviral and antibacterial properties. Honey is also a powerful antioxidant that has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. It activates the immune system's response to infection and prevents cell proliferation. Controlling cell proliferation is vital to stopping pesky viruses.

Regular consumption of these immunity booster drinks is proved very beneficial to prevent any infections or illnesses. You can have a different drink each day as per your mood and climate that you can feel more relaxed and stress-free.

 

Make your hot drink by combining any of the herbs with lemon juice and honey/ jaggery with 3 cups of boiling water. Our quick and easy go-to recipe is as follows:

two tablespoons of lemon juice (after preparation)

2 to 3 pieces of the ingredient mentioned above (as per your taste strong or mild)

one tablespoon of raw honey (after preparation)

I love this drink because it's quick to prepare, soothing to drink (especially during the flu season), and infuses the body and immune system with powerful immune-boosting compounds.

The bottom line

For a healthy living, you can make several dietary and lifestyle changes today to strengthen your immune system especially for monsoon and winter seasons. Which will also make a lot of difference for future generations to lead a healthy lifestyle. You should also include reducing your sugar intake, staying hydrated, working out regularly, getting adequate sleep, and managing your stress levels.

Although none of these suggestions can prevent COVID-19, they may reinforce your body's defenses against harmful pathogens.

The ancient Greek physician, Hippocrates, often referred to as the father of western medicine, once said, "Let food be thy medicine, and medicine be thy food."

Stay fit, stay healthy just by changing your daily routine.
