by eating broccoli sprinkled with lemon juice, 
and seasoned with a little garlic-lemon cookies.

     damage to the retina caused by these free radicals.

     even in high-risk groups.

    
               Garlic

Garlic has always been a miracle food , it has very potent
antioxidants compounds. The ancient Egyptians realized its 
health benefits, and considered it holy; they valued it so much,
they used it for money! While we might not use garlic in quite the
same way today, it is still world-renowned for being a very healthy food. 

Garlic contains sulphuric compounds, such as allicin, which gives
garlic its smell, but also its unparalleled protection against lifestyle illnesses 

     and diseases  of various types.

Turmeric

If you really want to boost your immune system, then use this root. 
Most people don’t think of turmeric; many of us are not familiar with
it and never use it.  It can be generally considered to be the most useless
spice that comes in the spice rack. However, turmeric has a variety of
medicinal properties; it can even be used as a topical antiseptic!

It also works as an anti-inflammatory when eaten, and is speculated by 
physicians to have properties that allow it to generate more immune cells.

Ginger

Ginger is well known and is great for cookies, teas, and baking, but it 
also boosts the immune system; using it in your bath when ill to increase 
the production of sweat, which rids the body of germs and toxins.
It is widely known for minimizing heartburn, motion sickness, migraines, 
and preventing colon and ovarian cancers. Make it a habit in
the morning to have a cup of green tea served with ginger for
a healthy alternative.

Broccoli

Not only does broccoli have extensive vitamins and minerals to keep the
body healthy, but it’s also one of the most effective immune system
boosters out there. It contains vitamins A, C, E, anti-cancer agents,
and potent antioxidant compounds, making it a threat to any nasty
germ in the body!

Enjoy broccoli juiced with other green vegetables, raw in your favorite salad, 
or steamed as a side dish to your entree.

Pumpkin

Pumpkin is very rich in beta carotene making it a prime source
of nutritional value.  Beta carotene is the main component of vitamin A, 
which both prevents cancer,  and strengthens cellular communication 
in the immune system. 

If you can’t manage eating a pumpkin, add pumpkin seeds to your diet as they are a
fabulous source of protein and zinc. They are even alleged to lower cholesterol.

Green Tea

The Chinese folklore states that green tea was discovered, only 
by accident, nearly four thousand years ago. Today Traditional 
Chinese Medicine (TCM) uses green tea to treat many conditions 
like aches, pains, headaches, minor gastrointestinal disorders, 
and depression. Green tea has also been used to detoxify the body, it's
a great immune booster.  It also works as an energizer, and to prolong life.

Many recommend Green Tea to strengthen the immune system,  with the ability
     of  fighting bacteria, and viruses. The epigallocatechin gallate or EGCG in green tea preventsa virus 
     from being able to replicate and multiply; recent tests indicate this ingredient may be an anti-cancer agent.

Red Bell Peppers

A great addition to any sauce is red bell peppers which are a
great source of vitamin C and are known as energy boosters.
As a matter of fact, many physicians agree that of all the fruits
and vegetables that contain vitamin C, red bell peppers are one
of the best. Within twenty minutes of consumption 
they elevate body heat production and oxygen intake.

Oregano

 Oregano not only boosts the immune system, but it’s also a critical
ingredient for Italian food lovers! It is high in antioxidants, 
and saturated with phenolic acids and flavonoids. Today, 
oregano is extensively used due to its anti-viral, 
anti-bacterial, anti-parasitic, anti-fungul, and
antiseptic properties.  You can find oregano in almost every 
spice rack, and when combined with other immune system booster’s
garlic, tomatoes, and meat for protein, it makes for the 
ultimate super dinner.

Apple Cider Vinegar

    Not the first food one thinks when grocery shopping, but apple cider vinegar is very 
effective. Its primary ingredient is of course apples 
which contain a host of vitamins including potassium, calcium, 
phosphorous, sodium, magnesium, chlorine, iron, fluorine and sulphur. 

While preparing a delicious fish dinner try 
adding the vinegar to fried or broiled fish, or you
can make vinaigrette for salads; raw and leafy vegetables 
are also boosters of the immune system.

Yogurt

                                        

Yogurt, thought to have been part of Middle Eastern diets as early as 2000 BC,
is a food we have long been told is good for usYogurt is renowned as a miracle food.

Yogurt provide the body with beneficial (“good”) intestinal bacteria  to promote 
health, and discourage the growth of disease-causing (“bad”) bacteria and
pathogenic fungi, and improve the balance of microbes which normally 
inhabit our intestines. 

Sometimes it’s paired with Indian and Mediterranean cuisine to take the
    edge off the eye-watering spices, and kefir is its equally delightful alternative. Both these varieties 
    of yogurt contain some highly beneficial bacteria that line the  intestines to ward  off parasite bacteria, 
    and virus germs.  Add a batch of blueberries, or strawberries for a healthy dessert.

Oysters

Oysters are an acquired taste; they’re slippery and gooey, 
and many people are disgusted by the prospect of eating them. 

The people who do like them often claim they are a powerful 
aphrodisiac; however, physicians have found high levels of zinc. 
The zinc mineral protects the bodyby increasing the potency of helper 
T cells, which detect antigens and germs in the body.
