Did you know that proper nutrition can not only help keep you fit but also give you superpowers? You may be skeptical, but the ability to stay healthy and disease-free is indeed a superpower. Your body is capable of protecting itself from diseases. But you have to understand that it will not do this without a little help. We are not talking about vitamin pills and some artificial serums. Only a proper diet can lead you to superimmunity.

Diseases are evolving every day. It’s proven by the fact that thirty-five new infectious diseases have emerged in the last thirty years alone. The reason for this is, unfortunately, global development, namely trade and the migration of people. The country’s economy suffers first when epidemics and pandemics simultaneously affect large numbers of people. For example, the United States spends almost forty million dollars every year on dealing with illnesses. Even if you don't look at this problem from the point of view of the state, you personally hardly like to get sick, do you?

This is where super immunity can come to our aid, not only protecting you from colds or runny noses but even saving you from the possibility of cancer. It is clear that medicine is evolving at an incredible rate today. But we can’t rely on medication alone when it comes to our health.

Did you know that the typical American hardly ever eats foods filled with phytochemicals? Only one-tenth of their diet comprises seeds, legumes, vegetables, fruits, and nuts. All other foods are white flour products, animal products, processed foods, and so on. Consequently, it affects their immunity.

Let's talk more about phytochemicals. These substances are found in some plants. The ancient Greeks and Egyptians appreciated their healing properties. At that time, people did not know exactly why certain products could become ingredients in healing recipes while others could not. But today, armed with modern technology, scientists know that it's all about phytochemicals.

You will say, "Wait, so we can heal with just some food?" Yeah, that sounds crazy, but it's true. Phytochemicals can help you build up your immunity and avoid many viral diseases. Some scientists hypothesize that phytochemicals may even lower your chances of getting AIDS. However, if you really want phytochemicals to have this magical effect on your body, you should probably change your diet. Hippocrates said that food can be our medicine. And that's absolutely valid advice to heed.
