Carrots and yams – simple, yes. Boring? Never! 
These wonderful simple veggies will help you stay healthy in the winter. Carrots are an excellent way to get lots of antioxidants and vitamin A into your body. These aspects will help you protect your body against cardiovascular disease and cancer.
Yams are also great for potassium as well, and both vegetables are sweet – which humans crave! Garlic is a natural antibiotic and cayenne will help keep you warm in the winter, so drink up – it’s easy!
