A diet that boosts my immune system!

Illness affects us all, but there are ways you can increase your immunity and avoid a lot of those common horrible bacterial and viral infections. 

The Lunch Box Diet is a great weight loss plan, yet unlike many weight loss plans, it offers better health!  So many weight loss plans allow the person to lose weight, but deplete overall health.  

In order to lose weight, you need to lower the amount of calories consumed.  Simple, right?  Not if you also want optimum health and the ability to fight off infection. Many, many diets leave this factor out of the plan.

That’s because they emphasise the wrong things. Reducing caloric intake has to allow for the foods we need. AND it needs to do so in a way that is actually easy for each and every person to comply with. 

Why does the Lunch Box Diet boost immunity?

A healthy immune system requires proper nutrition.  Without essential nutrients, the immune system cannot operate. 

The immune system has an incredibly intricate structure.  There are so many components involved that it would be difficult to explain it all without spending quite some time. Suffice it to say, all of the components of the immune system need to be produced properly and working properly in order to adequately fight off all the bacteria and viruses we are all exposed to these days.

Not only that, but in terms of proper functioning of it, more and more diseases are being attributed to a malfunctioning immune system.  Auto-immune diseases and conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, allergies and possibly even diabetes can be attributed to an immune system that isn’t working properly. 

The Lunch Box Diet contains all that is necessary for proper immune system functioning as it pertains to nutrition.

Like what? 

Vitamins are abundant in the Lunch Box Diet.  Through a very sensible approach, you are able to obtain all that you need in a day to support a healthy immune system.  This is done through a rainbow of vegetables that contain a myriad of vitamins and minerals as well. This is in Simon’s very special formula.

Vitamin A – Dubbed the anti-infection vitamin.  Betacarotene which is a pre-cursor to vitamin A production in the body is all over the place in the Lunch Box Diet as well as other carotenoids found in the orange veggies and fruits. 

Vitamin C – Quite possibly the most important vitamin in terms of immunity, this super antioxidant is found in citrus, peppers, tomatoes and other vegetables and fruits in the Lunch Box Diet.

Vitamin E  -- Extremely important antioxidant in the body in regard to immunity.  Vitamin E can be found in nuts, seeds, olive oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, canola oil, dark leafy greens, legumes and whole grains… all of which are in abundance in the Lunch Box Diet. 

Zinc is an immunity booster and can be found in the Lunch Box Diet in egg yolks, fish, legumes, lean meats, mushrooms and whole grains.  It’s highly important for absorption and proper concentration of the above vitamins which enhances their ability to function in the immune system.

Lean protein sources are essential to immunity as well.  Many of the components of the immune system are in fact protein. Cellular membranes rely on protein for strength.  Much of the function of the immune system relies on protein.

The Lunch Box Diet includes lean protein sources that offer what we need, yet do not add excessive amounts of saturated fat which can diminish our ability to fight off infection.  Saturated fat and trans fat both diminish overall cardiovascular health, contribute to weight gain AND produce more cell-destroying free radicals than any other macronutrient during digestion.

 Not only that, but the Lunch Box Diet nearly eliminates something that harms our immune system:  Refined carbohydrates. 

 Refined, sugary carbohydrates are a mainstay in our Westernised diets simply due to habit and convenience. The Lunch Box Diet helps you retrain your taste buds to enjoy more wholesome, healthful carbohydrates such as veggies, fruits, whole grains, nuts & seeds.

 AND it does so in a very doable way which is what makes the Lunch Box Diet stand out in the first place.

If you want a diet that will boost your immunity, the Lunch Box Diet is your ticket to better health!  It’s simple, it’s convenient and it’s healthier than any diet you’ve ever tried! Ready to get started?
