Kate Marshall (@thekatemarshall) co-founder of AURA Nutrition graced us with some AMAZING tips on wellness and immunity during our Morning Mindset IG Live on April 15th. It was too good to not share.

These are Kate’s must-haves for building a bulletproof immune system:

  1. Healthy diet
    Supplements are only as good as your gut health and your microbiome. If you don’t have a healthy diet, your body isn’t going to absorb those the same way and you’ll pee out your money.

  2. Vitamin C
    An antioxidant that synthesizes collagen(!), supports healing, growth and tissue repair, and enhances our immune system. If you’re searching for a Vitamin C supplement, choose a timed release or slow release one, so your body can absorb it through the day!

  3. Zinc
    Zin activates t-cells which support the immune system and is especially good for colds & cuts. Sensing a cold coming on? Pump up your zinc intake!

  4. Vitamin D
    Vitamin D supports the nervous system which makes it a caveat to regulating everything else. We're used to being outside all the time, so this is incredibly important right now to make sure we’re getting enough!
  5. MCT
    Level up your gut health through MCT. Liquid, powder, collagen blends. Look for organic with no additives. Mix it in your smoothie or coffee to kickstart your day! The energy you get from MCT is not a stimulant so you can take it at 4 pm for an extra hour of laser focus and not be up all night and who doesn’t need that?

What is MCT?

Medium-chain triglycerides that are part of the coconut/palm that is bio-available for your body. MCT is found in coconut/palm. Coconut oil has the same effects but has a longer conversion process in the body, whereas MCT is the ready to digest format that starts working right away. MCT boosts the immune system, targets inflammation as a treatment and proactive measure and supports gut health. A daily dose of MCT ensures you’re absorbing the most from your diet. MCT has a thermogenic effect on your body which means when you take it, it almost instantly converts to brain energy through your blood.
