Food That Help Fight Ebola And Any Other Disease by BekBek(m): 1:15am On Aug 22, 2014
You may seen this before but this for the people who want to know.

Most people don't know that the food we eat can be of greater help to us than just eating to gain strength or whatever, So today i will be sharing with you some list of foods that Provide our body with inner weapon, "OUR IMMUNE SYSTEM", To does that dont know what that is, Our immune system is our body soldiers that fight diseases of our body, They are also known as our White blood cells, Anyway am not here to teach biology, Am here to share with something you don't want to miss.

Straight to the point, Here they are.

1. Eggs : Yes, eggs because they are packed full with useful amino acids, zinc and B-vitamins. Contrary to previous belief, scientists at Harvard University, United States, U.S. have proved with empirical evidence that eggs do not raise blood cholesterol levels.

Eggs also build white blood cells (wbc) and antibodies, which the body needs to fight off illnesses. Eat them boiled for maximum effect. An egg a day increases blood levels of lutein by 26% and zeaxanthin by 38% without raising cholesterol. Eggs may not contain as much lutein and zeaxanthin as we have them in the eye-friendly anti-oxidants present in dark green, leafy vegetables but are better able to absorb them according to nutritional bio-chemist, Elizabeth Johnson

2. Yoghurt : It contains pro-biotics that strengthen the body’s immune system. In one research, it was found that people who drink three-quarters of a cup of yoghurt daily for a year had 25 per cent fewer colds than those who didn’t.

3 Red bell pepper : One pepper contains a whopping 200mg or more of vitamin C (an orange provides 70mg). It helps in both the building and protection of body cells.

4 Ginger : For centuries, the Chinese had used ginger as a cure-all for cold. Fresh ginger fights viruses by helping your body to sweat out toxins. Ginger is one of the common plant that help our body system. I do remember when i was in school, i do take Ginger tea in the morning before going to school, and that has really helped me alot. You should try it, it taste great .

5 Garlic : You don’t like the smell, do you? However, it is nature’s own anti-biotic. This is because it contains sulphur-based compounds that keep your body free of infection. Peel, crush it and mix with mashed potatoes.
Garlic also has anti-viral and anti-biotic properties. Two cloves a day will keep your immune system in top form. Do not cook for long to keep it potent.

6 Raw cocoa and dark chocolate : Eating raw cocoa and dark chocolate is good for one’s health as they contain very useful anti-oxidants known as flavonoids that provide numerous health benefits.

7. Sweet potatoes : Unknown to some people, sweet potatoes do not belong to the same family as the common white potato. Like other brightly-coloured, orange-yellow vegetables they are rich in beta-carotene that enhances good eyesight. They also contain potassium, foliate and some iron. They possess plant sterols that assist to lower blood cholesterol because of the excellent source of soluble and insoluble fiber.

8 Mushrooms : They are fat-free, low in calories, but rich in chemicals, especially glutamic acid that boosts the body’s immunity. In addition, they are powerful in fighting cancer, arthritis and lupus. Rich in copper, a single dose contains 20-40% of daily need. All mushrooms contain good amounts of potassium, helpful in lowering blood pressure. White mushrooms are sources of selenium that prevents prostate cancer. It works with vitamin E to clean up the free radicals

9 A mixture of carrot, apple, pear and mango : Helps to clear the body of heat, toxins, decrease blood pressure and fight oxidation.



So Guys there you have it, Don't forget to tell somebody about, cause you might just saved a life. cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy
