Younger You Autumn Salad with Citrus-Herb Dressing
Inflammation? Auto-immunity? Allergies? This is a recipe that supports immune health across its many different potential manifestations.
Chicken broth is superbly nourishing for the gut, which is an absolutely essential foundation for immune health – over 70% of the immune system is located in the gut! We love this recipe for chicken broth.
Turmeric and ginger are superbly anti-inflammatory and help calm inappropriate immune actions. Cumin and coriander are excellent for digestion.
Not only that, but a good curry is so warming, comforting and soul-nourishing.Take-away versions often fall short of that, and can often leave your stomach feeling bloated and upset.
Make your own and enjoy a healing meal!
