Best Juice for Immune Support
When you feel a cold coming on or you're already sick, your immune system needs ammunition: vitamin C to power immune cells, antioxidants to neutralize the inflammation that comes with infection, and easily digested calories so your body can focus on fighting back, not on digestion.
Pure cold-pressed juice — without added sugar — checks all those boxes. Here are the Pomona Organic flavors most worth reaching for when you feel run down.
FAQ
- What is the best juice for the immune system? — Orange and pink guava juice are the top picks for vitamin C content. Pomegranate and tart cherry add powerful antioxidants. Drink them as 100% pure juice with no added sugar.
- Is orange juice good when you're sick? — Yes — but only 100% pure, not-from-concentrate, no-added-sugar OJ like Pomona. Sugary orange juice will spike blood sugar and may suppress immune function.
- Does pomegranate juice boost the immune system? — Pomegranate juice is one of the most antioxidant-rich juices available. Lab studies show its punicalagins have antiviral and antibacterial properties — and it reduces overall inflammation.
- How much vitamin C juice should I drink when sick? — 8-16 oz of vitamin C-rich juice (orange, pink guava, grapefruit) per day, spread out, is a sensible amount. More isn't necessarily better — your body excretes excess vitamin C.
- Can kids drink immune-support juice? — Yes. Pomona is 100% pure organic juice with no added sugar — appropriate for kids in moderate amounts. Dilute with water for younger children to soften acidity.
