Yellow for Your Immune System

By Carolin 

Welcome back!

Oranges

That oranges are good for our immune system comes as no surprise. But it is not only the vitamin C that helps your immune system.

The yellow pigment, yellow carotenoids, is a great antioxidant.

Free radicals damage immune cells and the antidote to free radicals is the antioxidants.

Yellow carotenoids can be found in oranges, mandarins, peaches, mangoes and apricots.
