Top 7 keto foods to boost your immunity

Most of us are now, more than ever aware, of the importance of strengthening our immune systems. But only a few people know that even small changes in the diet can significantly help the body cope with bacteria and viruses much better. In the keto diet, you can include super foods that literally give your immunity the “kick”. We have a list of ten of them that you should definitely not leave out.

1/ Garlic

Of all the natural medicinal products, garlic has a unique role in the field of boosting your immunity. It is one of nature’s most important antioxidants. It has strong anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antiviral effects. It works as a prevention against a common cold and a flu. It helps with asthma problems, it’s also good for diabetics and people with high blood pressure. Don’t be afraid to add it in larger quantities to KetoMix omelets or soups. It’s also great when you spread it on KetoMix bread toast.

2/ Brazil nuts

Para nuts contain high amounts of vitamins, antioxidants and minerals. They are known for their high levels of selenium, which helps the immune system and prevents coronary heart disease, liver cirrhosis and cancer. And since nuts are allowed while being on the KetoMix diet, don’t be afraid of having them.

3/ Elderberries

They contain a lot of vitamin C and vitamin A, have anti-inflammatory, anti-ulcer, antiviral and anti-cancer effects. They are one of the most effective agents against viral and bacterial infections. They have the ability to destroy viruses, significantly strengthen the immune system and are also good for bronchial tubes (they help with the release of mucus). You can also add dried elderberry flowers or fruits to KetoMix month-long herbal treatment.

4/ Ginger

You can also boost your immune system with ginger. It has anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antibiotic and warming characteristics. It helps with colds and respiratory diseases because it can relax the muscles in the airways. Ginger is great for its taste and aroma, especially in the Asian dishes. If you’re making a KetoMix Asian soup, don’t forget to add it. All you have to do is to grate it and add it to the finished soup.

5/ Broccoli

Broccoli contains large amounts of vitamins, minerals, fiber and other nutrients. It helps your immunity and is also a source of agents that act in preventing skin, prostate or bladder cancer. Broccoli also helps in preventing infections. By consuming broccoli, you encourage your digestion, metabolism, and hematopoiesis. Broccoli is great battered, so don’t be afraid to coat it in a KetoMix Vegetable omelette and then fry it briefly.

6/ Spinach

Spinach is full of iron, minerals, fiber, antioxidants and vitamin C. It has beneficial effects on heart activity, helps the haematopoietic function, boosts the immune system, improves memory and generally is beneficial for the brain function. You can add fresh spinach to salads that you can serve with some of the KetoMix dressings.

7/ Almonds

They contain a lot of fiber and no carbohydrates. They also are a source of magnesium, which has a big role in regulating blood sugar levels. They also contain a lot of vitamin E, the body’s most important antioxidant. Especially the skin of almonds is rich in them, so feel free to eat the almonds, which are unpeeled. You can even use them for making the KetoMix Gingerbread or make hazel sticks with them.
