“Nourish Your Immune System” Drink

One of my favorite recipes for building a healthy immune system, and entire body, is to eat Sunrider’s foundational food program on a daily basis – which I refer to as NBC. “N” is for nourish, “B” is for balance, “C” is for cleanse. The Sunrider foods that nourish, balance and cleanse the body include Nuplus, Quinary, Calli and/or Fortune Delight and Sunnydew.  Enjoy this recipe for NBC in a mug which is nutritionally powerful for the entire body, including the immune system.

NBC in a Mug
1 scoop of Nuplus
1 packet of Quinary
1 packet of Alpha 20C

Combine all of the above within 2 cups of Calli Tea or Fortune Delight. Add a few drops of Sunnydew – and drink!

For information on ordering the Sunrider foods to make NBC in a Mug, contact my office at 508-309-6229.
