Last Sunday I slept a little late due to my usual Back Pain which made me stay awake for a long time in the night and I slept off in the morning when the pain subsided.  It's a routine to call my parents on Sundays and I stick on to specific timing for it. It was a bit late when I called them & my Mom asked me why I was late. I said about my Back Pain & immediately she asked me to drink Moringa Leaves Tea, which had helped her solve the problem.  And as usual, we were talking about all things around along with the latest updates of COVID & Corona Virus.  She said she was making Tulsi Tea for all at home so that it would boost up the immunity.  
     Immediately, I started with my regime too, in my own way of boosting up the immunity.  With the latest news of Covid Cases locally and in Singapore, my husband's frequent visits to his HQ in Singapore has given me a bit of worry.  And so here comes a simple Home Remedy to fight Cold & Flu and also to Boost your Immunity.  Tulsi & Turmeric Tea.

You can even add Ginger to this Tea and sweeten it up with Honey and serve it along with a tinge of Lemon Juice.  A refreshing Tea recipe with added benefits from the ingredients will surely refresh your senses, rejuvenates your mood and silently boosts your immunity.
