Ginger
Ginger There's a reason this flowering plant has been widely used for medicinal and culinary purposes by a myriad of cultures throughout history — it's absolutely loaded with immune-boosting benefits. "Ginger has warming effects, which is believed to help break down the accumulation of toxins in the body," says Dr. Axe. "Plus, it helps to cleanse our lymphatic system, reduce inflammation and fight infections." He suggests adding ginger to your smoothie, drinking ginger tea daily or using an organic ginger essential oil and applying 2-3 drops topically to your stomach.
