Following the hectic schedule of getting our children ready for school in August, September marks the true transition of the seasons. It's the ideal time to quickly enhance your immune system and get your body ready for the colder months. Many people tend to overlook or neglect their health during this period. In this article, I have some excellent tips to help you rapidly boost your immune system.

Our store aims to remind you of the early transition between seasons, where lemons symbolize the end of summer and the start of autumn. Consuming warm water with freshly squeezed lemon juice each morning can quickly enhance your immune system. However, achieving overall balanced health goes beyond just lemon water. It involves additional care, kindness, love, and a mindful approach to maintain good health.

Boost Immune System Recipe:

Lemon tea in the morning!

1/2 freshly squeezed Lemon Juice

1 cup of warm Water

Direction:

Pour warm water into a tea cup with squeezed lemon juice and drink it on an empty stomach before breakfast every morning to help cleanse your liver and enhance digestion.

Lemon Ginger Tea

1 - 2 thin slice(s) Ginger head

1 cup of Water

1 - 2 slice(s) of Lemon

*Note: Home much you use for ginger, it depends on how spicy of ginger flavor you prefer.

Direction:

In a small pot, pour 1 cup of water and add ginger slices. Bring it to a boil over medium heat for approximately 5 minutes. Then, transfer the mixture to a tea cup, add lemon slices, and allow it to cool down before drinking.

Ginger generates warmth and helps keep your body warm in cold weather, offering numerous health benefits. Consuming it with meals or during an afternoon break can help maintain your health during seasonal changes.

Plants are not alternative medicine but plants are main medicine!

In our household during this time of year, we prepare by incorporating turmeric, ginger, and lemon into our diet and begin eating more soupy foods to nourish our bodies and stay warm in the mornings and evenings. We are more flexible with our lunch meals. During this season, we start drinking warm water and tea, while my husband prepares for his fall rejuvenation detox, which lasts about a month and includes the entire process from start to finish, usually beginning in October. For more information, you can visit his website at Dosha Ayurveda.

Another recipe that greatly benefits our family is Turmeric Boosting. This recipe helps alkalize my body and is usually very beneficial for me during this season.

Turmeric Boosting Recipe:

1 teaspoon of Turmeric powdered

1/2 teaspoon of Ginger powdered

1/2 freshly squeezed Lemon juice

1 tablespoon of Unrefined/Raw Local Honey

1 cup of Warm Water

*Note: The properties of turmeric or ginger can vary depending on whether they are used in dried, powdered, or fresh form. If using fresh turmeric, you can reduce the amount to 1/2 teaspoon, as fresh forms tend to be more potent and affect the formula accordingly.

Direction:

Place all the powdered ingredients into your tea cup, then add the lemon juice and honey. Next, pour warm water into the cup and stir thoroughly. Consume within 15 minutes.

*When using honey with warm water, the temperature should be around 65 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit. If the warm water exceeds 75 degrees, consuming it with honey can become toxic.
