"This smoothie may not jump out at you as immune boosting, but it contains some pretty powerful players! Almonds contain many different types of nutrients, such as protein and vitamin E. While vitamin E isn’t as important to a strong immune system as vitamin C, it is still needed to keep your immune system healthy. Almonds are a highly nutritious nut and a rich source of vitamin E, calcium, phosphorous, iron and magnesium. Plus, cacao is a powerful antioxidant containing phenolic compounds that can strengthen the defences of our immune system and up our body's resistance. This is definitely a smoothie that your immune system will thank you for this Winter!" - Holly Nash, Dietitian & Nutritionist
