Super Immune Boosting Smoothie. I get it – when you’re sick you just don’t have an appetite to eat. Or maybe you can’t eat because your throat is killing you. But this is the worse time to NOT fill your body will vitamins and nutrients as your body needs everything you can throw at it to fight off the infection that’s keeping you sick.

So first things first – start doubling up on supplements like Vitamins C, D, A, and Zinc. Read up here, VITAMINS AND FOODS TO FIGHT A COLD AND FLU on why these vitamins are crucial to your immune system when you’re sick.

And in addition to these supplements, make yourself a smoothie that is loaded with these vitamins and nutrients as well. Like the one below – the Super Immune Boosting Smoothie. What’s in it and what makes it so powerful?
