4 foods that will prevent you from getting SICK


Daughter


Can't remember whetehr you should starve a fever or a cold?


Don't do either :

By eating right foods throughout the year, you can bolster your immune defenses and stop viruses in their tracks.









DRINK MORE tea....


Polyphenols, antioxidants chemicals found in white and green varieties, may inhibit the growth of bacteria that cause strep throat, pneumonia , and staph infections.






EAT MORE apples...

Quercetin, a chemical with antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties found in apples(as well as broccoli, red onions, and berries) can help your body maintain its natural flu fighting ability.






GET MORE yogurt..




Contrary to popular belief, eating dairy products won't increase congestion or worsen a cold.IN fact the lactic acid bacteria in yougurt can activate immune cells that fight illness.


LOAD UP ON chicken soup...




Spooning up this dish can help alleviate cold symptoms by blocking a type of white blood cell that triggers them.
