In winter, we must not only change our wardrobe and get warm coats and scarves but also review our nutrition. It is effortless to improve your spring-winter diet. It is enough to add vitamin shots – concentrates of useful plant products that strengthen the immune system. What is it and why it is important to drink them: read about it in the article.
What are wellness shots?
It is a high concentration of active plant products, which in turn strengthen the immune system, speed up metabolism, and cleanse the blood and the body as a whole.
That is why it is important to drink them in the winter-spring period when the immunity is reduced and requires an additional dose of vitamins.
Wellness shots are small bottles (usually 120 ml) with concentrates of useful plant products. The concentration of healthy properties increases 5 times compared to a cocktail or smoothie.
