Peaches are perfect for any season thanks to their powerful immune-boosting properties and formidable antioxidants that have been shown reduce oxidative stress as quickly as 30 minutes after ingestion. And we’ve augmented the immune benefits of peaches with the impressive effects of oats. A kind of fiber called beta-glucan that’s found in oats can help your body rid itself of invaders like bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Beta-glucan has even been shown to boost immune defenses in people undergoing intense treatments like chemotherapy and radiation.
As a callback to fall, we used apple juice and nutmeg for their warming effects. Then, for extra richness and sweetness, we added almond milk, slivered almonds, and almond extract. So please, enjoy!
