Immune boosting smoothie we advocate is aimed at supporting your immune system. Natural ingredients does a better job at boosting your immune system, which is why it is recommended that you use natural ingredients to help our bodies fight off infection. You can use natural ingredients to make your smoothie by mixing them into delicious, nutritious, combinations. The most common smoothie appears to be those made from pure fruit ingredients.

Some people buy expensive food supplements to give their body extra immunity against flu, colds and other illnesses, especially in the winter months. What is often overlook is that you can boost your family immune systems and make cost effective homemade smoothie using the ingredients below.

Children often don’t feel like eating following a cold or illness. Their nutrition suffers and their immune system suffers. This accounts for the common occurrence of getting one infection after another. It’s best to keep so well nourished that the nutritional reserves can withstand several days of poor eating.

Drink this smoothie daily upon school entry, upon beginning daycare, upon exposure to a contagious illness, or when you or your child feels a cold coming on.

1. 2 cups milk or soy or rice beverage
2. 1 cup plain non-fat yogurt
3. 1 serving of a multi-nutrient supplement
4. one frozen banana, cut up
5. 1/2 cup frozen blueberries
6. 1/2 cup each of your favourite fruit, frozen (e.g., organic strawberries, papaya, mango)
7. 1 tbsp. flax oil or 2 tbsp. flaxseed meal (Because fibre steadies the absorption of carbohydrates and therefore contributes to a steadier blood sugar we suggest using rich sources of fibre, such as flaxseed meal (i.e., ground flax seeds, containing both the oil and fibre), although flax oil has a more palatable consistency than flaxseed meal. For additional fibre, if you don’t mind an even grainier texture, add 1 tbsp. or more of oat bran.
8. 3 ounces tofu
9. 10 mg. zinc
10. 100 mcg. selenium
11. 50-100 IU vitamin E
12. 1 serving soy isolate powder (optional)
13. 2 tbsp. peanut butter (optional)

Com­bine all the ingredi­ents and blend until smooth. Serve imme­di­ately after blend­ing while the mix­ture still has a bub­bly milkshake-like con­sist­ency.
