Giving your health a hand

Having a strong immune system is important in staying happy and healthy, but many people don’t know exactly what to eat in order to keep their immune systems running properly. Luckily, a series of studies have revealed which foods contain essential nutrients in helping your body fight off disease, keeping you fit all season round.

Blueberries are a quick, easy, and delicious way to get antioxidants, which can help boost your immune system. A recent study found that people who regularly consumed antioxidants were less likely to be afflicted by the common cold than those who did not. For a healthy zest, spice up your cooking with some turmeric. It contains curcumin, which has been found to have antioxidants and anti-inflammatory effects. Turmeric is another easy way to add some health benefits to dishes.

Finally, if you’re looking for a treat, dark chocolate has been shown to contain the antioxidant theobromine, which can potentially strengthen the immune system by helping to protect the body from harmful molecules.

 

Lighting the waves

The summer also means a chance for aquatic adventures. Whether you find yourself in a pool or the ocean, the warm weather gives the opportunity to explore the world beneath the waves. Wild Planet’s Aqua Light Mask allows the wearer to see underwater, but what’s more it comes equipped with a set of lights that can illuminate the water up to 35 feet.

This means pool time doesn’t have to end when the sun goes down, and that you can see underwater in greater detail than ever before! Adjustable straps make these goggles usable for any child, making this a fun way to add another dimension to swimming and underwater exploration!
