"Supports immunity, helps fight viruses": a doctor spoke about the benefits of kefir for colds
Kefir is a healthy drink that improves the immune system and helps fight viruses.
Nutritionist Julie Upton spoke about this, reports the publication Eat This, Not That .
As the doctor noted, the fermented milk drink contains prebiotics that maintain the balance of the gastrointestinal microbiota.
This has a positive effect on the functioning of the immune system, helping it to fight viruses and other pathogens more effectively.
As the nutritionist explained, to maintain immunity, you can pay attention to a number of other drinks.
Upton noted the benefits of green tea, as well as tea with honey and ginger. In addition, do not forget to drink clean water to maintain water balance.
It is water that helps protect the mucous membranes of the nose, mouth and throat from bacteria.
When you have a cold, you can include orange and tomato juices in your menu, which are rich in vitamin C.
