Good habits to adopt to boost your immune defences and body
Boost your immunity with vitamins and nutrients
All vitamins are good for your health. Vitamin C is an essential nutrient for our wellbeing and contributes to the proper functioning of the immune system and beautiful skin. It stimulates lymphocytes and antibody production. Vitamin C therefore supports the body’s natural defences, which is why it is highly recommended in winter. To boost your immune defences, choose vitamin C and ensure you provide your body with a sufficient amount to strengthen it. Nothing is better for stimulating your entire immune system, combined with good dietary habits to take care of your health!
To do this, fill your plate with fresh, organic, seasonal, colourful foods containing vitamin C, plants or active ingredients beneficial to your defences and immunity.
Alongside your diet, as autumn approaches, warm up with our organic green teas.
Rich in antioxidants, organic green tea is, for example, a perfect ally for boosting your immunity, strengthening your natural defences and stimulating your immune system. Did you know that green tea contains the most? It is thanks to its antioxidants (catechins) that green tea helps fight the action of free radicals and premature ageing of the body. It may even act against the development of certain diseases and considerably improve the appearance of your skin.
Because taking care of yourself means, above all, treating yourself, Kusmi Tea has created organic Rituel Défenses Immunitaires, an organic green tea brimming with inventiveness and specially designed for the wellbeing and proper functioning of your immune system, natural defences and body. The principle of this vitamin cure? Organic Défenses Immunitaires tea, designed to boost your immunity and provide the right daily dose of vitamin C. An innovative yet equally delicious blend, thanks to its delightful fruity notes of orange, tropical fruits and blackcurrant. Défenses Immunitaires tea provides the recommended daily amount to stock up on antioxidants, stimulate antibody production and boost your vitality, at a rate of 3 cups a day. This tea can be enjoyed all year round, but is particularly recommended during the winter season, often conducive to the development of bacteria and microbes, to strengthen your defences with a good dose of vitamins.
Immunity also comes through sport
Which sport? It does not matter: move as much as possible and replace sedentary habits with physical activity, alongside a good dietary routine. A 30-minute walk, a yoga session, a bike ride, a HIIT session by Sissy Mua… the choice is yours. The WHO recommends spending at least 150 to 300 minutes per week on moderate-intensity endurance activity. Your immune system will thank you!
Yes, sport for health is no longer a myth, as it helps strengthen your immune system and defences. According to the WHO, physical activity contributes to “the prevention and management of non-communicable diseases, reduces symptoms of depression and anxiety, and improves overall wellbeing.” Sport also helps significantly reduce stress and strengthen your immunity over time.
You have no more excuses: in the age of digitalisation, sport is accessible everywhere, for everyone and for every budget. Boost your immunity!
And for a healthy immune system, choose your tea carefully!
To make the most of all the benefits of tea or an infusion, and to be sure you are giving your body and immune system the best, we recommend choosing organic products. This designation guarantees numerous quality checks during the development and production of the drink. Discover our organic range and Made in Normandy products! These recommendations also apply to foodstuffs, for a varied and balanced diet.
The body is so well designed that if your immune system is too weakened and lacks the right vitamins, it will send you signals of fatigue. For example, insufficient vitamin C intake can lead to general exhaustion. This is why the French National Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety recommends an intake of 110 mg/day of vitamin C for an adult. Organic Immune Defences tea
