Good Food to Boost Our Immune System

Cold winds are blowing outside. We can feel the cold breeze and we can also see fogs at the dawn. This is maybe because Christmas season is coming, but it is also the season we likely catch cold and flu. In order to prevent ourselves from getting sick, we should boost our immune system. Here are some good foods for our immune system. Citrus fruits such as oranges, grapefruits, tangerines, lemons and limes are rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants. They facilitate the production of white blood cells, which are key components that fight infections. Green vegetables like spinach, broccoli, and cabbage are also abundant in essential vitamins and antioxidants. In addition, yogurt is rich in good bacteria called probiotics, which fight against infections and bad bacteria. Garlic has also been used to fight infections since early history. Ginger also helps decrease inflammation and is good for you when you have a sore throat. Nuts such as almonds and walnuts are rich in vitamin E and antioxidants. Eat right to stay healthy specially this coming cold holiday season and during this Covid 19 pandemic.
