How to boost immunity with food

Healthy lifestyle and food habits help shape the human body for a better tomorrow. Sadhguru always suggests investing in healthy and sustainable eating practices that can boost the immunity and metabolism. In a blogpost on Isha Foundation website, he shared eight tips on how to boost the immune system with natural food items. Take a look.

2/9

Neem leaves



Sadhguru suggests chewing 8-12 neem leaves on an empty stomach. He states, "It is very important that it stays in your mouth as it is most effective here. Chew it for one to two hours. Do not wash it out or swallow it, just let it just be there in the mouth."

3/9

Turmeric


He also mentions that consuming turmeric every day in the morning and allowing it to stay in the stomach at least for one hour before you eat anything. This does wonders for the human body, and best is to have organic turmeric, he mentions in the blog.

4/9

Hot drinks


He also suggests drinking hot water about 4-5 times a day. It could just be plain hot water or you can put a little bit of coriander or mint, or you can add a pinch of turmeric, or even a little lime juice, and drink that regularly, he suggests.

5/9

Mahavilva leaves



As per Sadhguru these leaves are available in the Western Ghats region and if you can eat about three to five leaves a day in the morning, that will also enhance your immune system.

6/9

Raw amla



As per his post, all you need to do is smash one amla, put a little salt on it and just chew it. You must keep it in your mouth for one to two hours, as it is most effective there, he recommends.

7/9

Amla with honey and peppercorns


Sadhguru recommends soaking amla in honey overnight, along with some broken black or green peppercorns.It works best if that is the first thing that you take, when you are on an empty stomach. If you do this, in four to eight weeks, one can see significant improvement of one's immune system, he states in the post.

8/9

Raw mango



As per him, eating raw mango can also boost the immune system a little bit.

9/9

Chyawanprash

He calls it a traditional offering that can build the immune system. If you have old people at home, beyond sixty years of age, it is good to start them on chyawanprash, he mentions in the post.
