Clarity in Nutrition, Confidence in Health
These days, due to the COVID-19 crisis, immune health appears to be at the forefront of everyone's minds. While immune health is complex and relies on an interplay of many factors, nutrition plays a key role.
The body’s immune response relies on the presence of multiple micronutrients, such as vitamin C, vitamin D, zinc, selenium, iron, and many amino acids from protein1. These nutrients assist the immune system in a number of ways, including working as an antioxidant to protect healthy cells from free radical damage, supporting the growth and activity of immune cells, and producing antibodies.
This recipe collection boasts 30 plant-based lunch recipes that include foods containing many nutrients that help support immune health. The majority of these recipes are vegan-friendly, gluten-free, and ready in under 30 minutes!
