With the arrival of autumn, when the temperature drops and the days become shorter, the cold season often brings not only beautiful colors, but also colds and bad moods. However, nutrition expert Fabian Fallenbüchel from Lebenskraftpur has the secret weapons to boost the immune system and brighten your mood! With the right diet, this challenging period can be overcome, and there are simple ways to strengthen your immune system.
To protect health in the cold months, vitamin C, zinc and vitamin D are essential! Vitamin C is found in delicious citrus fruits and green vegetables like broccoli - it boosts the production of white blood cells that protect us from infections. Zinc is the immune defense hero that we find in nuts, beef and oysters. However, vegetarians have to be careful here, because plant sources have a lower bioavailability! And now it gets exciting: Hardly any sunlight in the winter months means that we hardly produce any vitamin D - a real risk for our immune system! This deficiency can be easily compensated for with high-quality vitamin D drops.
Garlic & Mood Remedies for Winter
And there's more! Garlic is the secret weapon against colds. Its impressive antimicrobial properties help activate the immune system. For many, fermented black garlic is ideal - without an unpleasant smell, but with a concentrated load of effects! Winter not only brings cold, but also low moods. Therefore, natural helpers like saffron and Rhodiola Rosea are a must! Saffron can increase serotonin levels and thus improve mood, while Rhodiola Rosea acts as a real stress buffer and drives away fatigue.
In order to strengthen your own defenses and maintain your good mood, we recommend a holistic approach that includes a combination of vitamins, minerals and plant extracts. Nutrition experts can help determine individual needs to get through the winter safely. Exercise, a balanced diet and enough sleep are also essential to get through the cold season feeling fresh and healthy!
