Benefits
SALMON
One of the richest sources of omega-3 (in the form of DHA and EPA) and vitamin D, an essential vitamin for the immune system.
BLUEBERRIES
One of the fruits with the highest antioxidant content and rich in quercetin. Blueberries help fight against inflammation, boost the immune system, and promote general health. They also help with circulation, making them ideal for fighting against cellulite and water retention, and they have anti-aging effects.
BABY SPINACH
Spinach helps strengthen the immune system due to its content of quercetin. Spinach is also rich in iron which is essential to carry oxygen throughout the body so cells can produce energy.
ARUGULA
Arugula is rich in manganese, iron, and calcium. This veggie also sustains the detox of the liver.
