Immunity

Drinking tea can offer you a wealth of benefits to help build up your immune system. The leading immune system building block is EGCG, a powerful polyphenol, antioxidant with known health benefits. EGCG is believed to be responsible for many of Green and White teas’ beneficial properties. It possesses anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory characteristics.

Rooibos, is another great alternative beverage for helping strengthen your immune system. This caffeine-free “tea” does not only contain high levels of potent antioxidants, but it is also a great source of vitamins and minerals.

In addition, look out for blends that contain lemongrass and ginger, both effective herbs in boosting immunity.
