Delhi: As the crisp winter season arrives with cold winds, dry air, and smog, many turn to warm teas and haldi-doodh (turmeric milk) to fend off seasonal illnesses. While not a magic cure, recent studies suggest that these home remedies can support the immune system by reducing inflammation, enhancing antioxidant defenses, and supporting respiratory and gut health.

Here’s a simple DIY immunity booster shot you can prepare at home:

Ingredients:

· 1 teaspoon turmeric powder

· 1 teaspoon ginger juice or freshly grated ginger

· 1 tablespoon lemon juice

· 1 teaspoon honey (optional, for taste)

· 1 cup warm water

Method:

1. Mix turmeric, ginger, and lemon juice in warm water.

2. Stir well until fully blended.

3. Add honey if desired, and consume once daily for best results.

This shot harnesses the anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and antioxidant properties of turmeric and ginger, while lemon provides Vitamin C, crucial for immune health. Regular intake during winter can help strengthen your body’s natural defenses and keep common colds and seasonal illnesses at bay.
