Our Skin Educates Our Immune System.

 Eighty percent of our immune system is found in our gut. This means we can’t take care of one without involvement from the other. If you’re like me, you may find this fascination knowing what we put in our mouth can change our glow inside and out.

1-Ginger and turmeric reduce inflammation in and out of sinus season. They have anti-oxidant properties, protects immunity, improves gastrointestinal health and fights premature aging!

2-The letters ORAC stand for Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity. This means colorful fruits and veggies have antioxidant ability to fight free radicals. Blueberries and raspberries are berries brilliantly rich in color, loaded in antioxidants, neutralize free radicals, and slow the aging process. Rich in anthocyanins, which reduce inflammation and improve breathing, blueberries boosts immunity and helps to manage mucus production.

3-Cilantro helps sinuses by way of its anti-inflammatory properties and antioxidant content. Antioxidants in cilantro may also reduce inflammation in the brain!

4-Spinach, rich in vitamin E, antioxidants and bioflavonoids protects skin and boost collagen levels as do apples, and may help with sinuses, because they fight inflammation to support immune function.

5-Avocados have antioxidant and DNA protective effects, fight premature aging, and can also prove beneficial for sinus health and brain function.

6-Alcohol is not a health food and decreases immunity.

7- As our weight increases sinus issues can become worse.
