How to Build the Immune System With Natural Juice

Your immune system helps ward off colds, bacterial infections and other diseases. Unfortunately, sometimes the invaders are too strong, and you end up getting sick. There are certain vitamins and minerals such as zinc and vitamin C found in many fruits that naturally boost your immune system. Most fruits contain small amounts of zinc, but kiwi and blackberries are the best source. They are also high in vitamin C, which makes a blend of kiwi and blackberry juice a delicious way to keep your immune system strong. Consuming these fruits on a regular basis can lower your risk for getting sick.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Water
• ½ cup of blackberries
• 3 kiwis
• Knife
• Spoon
• Blender
• Tall Drinking Glass

1. Measure the blackberries into the measuring cup.

2. Rinse the blackberries and kiwis under the faucet.

3. Slice the kiwis in half with the knife.

4. Dig the spoon into the kiwi and trace it along the outer edge so that as much of the green inside remains in the spoon.

5. Place the inside in the blender and discard the kiwi skin.

6. Repeat Steps 4 and 5 for the remaining kiwi halves.

7. Pour the blackberries into the blender and blend on the lowest setting until the mixture appears smooth.

8. Pour the juice from the blender into the glass and enjoy.

Tips & Warnings

• Be sure to choose kiwis that are ripe. Otherwise, they may taste bitter. You can tell how ripe they are by squeezing them. They should be soft but not mushy. The Steps above will make a thick juice. If you prefer it to be smoother, add as much water as desired prior to blending. You can also add honey to make the juice sweeter.
