The peaceful, calming atmosphere of the rainy season is linked with an increased risk of sickness and compromised immune systems. If we want to stay healthy and prevent illness this season, we must prioritize the health of our immune systems. One effective way to achieve this is to include nutritious and immune-boosting drinks in our regular routine.
Here are 5 Ayurvedic drinks that can help boost immunity during monsoon season
1. Tulsi tea
The antibacterial and antioxidant-rich qualities of tulsi, also known as holy basil, support the body’s defence against illness. Furthermore, this tea helps with digestion, stress reduction and respiratory health.
2. Ginger tea
Gingerol, a bioactive substance found in ginger, has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that strengthen the immune system. Ginger tea aids in lowering muscular pain, enhancing digestion and reducing nausea.
3. Amla juice
One of the best foods to eat for vitamin C is amla, or Indian gooseberry. Vitamin C is necessary for fighting infections and maintaining an effective immune system. Furthermore, it strengthens the digestive system, promotes healthy skin and helps with detoxification.
4. Turmeric Milk
Turmeric’s significant anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties make it ideal for use in drinks during the rainy season. Golden milk, also known as turmeric milk, is a mix made with turmeric, warm milk and a small amount of honey. Curcumin, a turmeric component, improves digestion, reduces inflammation and boosts the immune system.
5. Cumin water
The antibacterial and antioxidant qualities of cumin (jeera) seeds promote a stronger immune system. Cumin water improves digestion, lowers bloating and can aid in weight management.
