Use this attractive cabbage in salads, cook it in stir-fries, or ferment it to make sauerkraut or kimchi and boost your gut health with some natural probiotics.

  • 8. Elderberries – They also clear up respiratory infections and support immune health.
  • 9. Pomegranates – This superfood relieves anemia and stomach disorders. It also prevents the formation of enzymes that break down connective tissue, helping to prevent osteoarthritis.
