To safeguard our health it is necessary to take some substances that help our body to strengthen and also to prevent seasonal ailments.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C is a must in autumn and winter and is the best medicine against seasonal ailments and parainfluenza syndromes. It is found primarily in oranges and all citrus fruits, but also in peppers, cauliflower, kiwi, pineapple and broccoli.

Water and mineral salts

A mistake that is often made in winter is to drink little or nothing and this is not good because the body needs constant hydration. It is important to drink because through water, the body absorbs important mineral salts.

Antioxidants

The amount of antioxidants should also be increased and this can be achieved by eating lots of red and purple fruit, such as blueberries and currants.

Lactic ferments should be increased as early as the autumn season to strengthen the immune system and counteract the flu.
