There are a lot of people out there claiming that certain ingredients and recipes can protect you from getting viruses and colds; this is simply not true. There are no wonder foods that ward of viruses, however, there are certain nutrients that can help bolster your body's natural defences and support the immune system just as certain vitamins and minerals are needed in order to remain healthy.

This Immune Support Smoothie will not guarantee that you'll keep winter sniffles at bay, but it is packed with a whole host of important nutrients to help you stay healthy and support the immune system. It includes carrots as a rich source of vitamin A, which supports the immune system, ginger and turmeric, both well known natural anti-inflammatories and lemon juice, which is a great source of vitamin C, another vitamin important for supporting the immune system.

This simple smoothie is also packed with protein at 14g a serving, perfect for supporting your muscles in recovery after a heavy run or cycle.
