How to eat when you have a cold?

As autumn approaches, and with it come changing temperatures and increased precipitation, our body is put to a big test. It is not difficult to get an infection, which can exclude you from your everyday life for a while. It is worth knowing, however, that an appropriate and balanced diet during the course of an illness
can help in fighting it. Find out how to eat when you have a cold.

How to eat when you have a cold? Vitamin C

One of the greatest allies of immunity is, of course, ascorbic acid - the commonly known vitamin C. It is precisely this vitamin that supports the protection of cells against the adverse effects of oxidative stress and helps to combat free oxygen radicals.

 

How to supply the body with the right amount of ascorbic acid? It is worth choosing fresh fruit (e.g. cranberry, blueberry, black currant, acerola or wild rose) and vegetables (e.g. pepper, parsley). And if that is not enough, reach for additional support in the form of high-quality dietary supplements by Olimp Sport Nutrition. The Vita-Min Multiple Sport capsules provide the body with essential vitamins and minerals with the addition of valuable plant extracts in precisely determined portions in a simple and convenient way. The substances used for production have undergone the necessary microbiological analysis of purity, which confirms the absence of any contamination in the form of hazardous heavy metals.

How to eat when you have a cold? Garlic

When it comes to a diet aimed at supporting the body during a cold, one must certainly not forget about garlic - a small vegetable that provides a number of benefits during any infection. Allicin contained in garlic is an extremely valuable remedy against various microorganisms (including fungi, bacteria and some viruses), but not only that. According to the experts, garlic is also helpful in regulating blood pressure, reducing blood sugar levels and providing general immunity support.

 

However, the intense taste and smell of garlic may not suit everyone. That is why scientists from the Olimp Laboratories pharmaceutical company have prepared Garlicin. These handy and easy to swallow capsules allow you to enrich your daily diet with highly standardized garlic extract (2% allicin content!). The biggest advantage of the product is the total lack of the characteristic garlic smell.
