Good nutrition is essential for a healthy immune system, and to achieve this you should attempt to include the following items in your diet on a regular basis:
- Protein – helps with healing and recovery. You can find this in seafood, lean meat, poultry, eggs, beans and peas, soy products and unsalted nuts and seeds
- Vitamin A – helps fight against infections by keeping tissues in the skin, mouth, stomach, intestines and respiratory system healthy, as these are all common entry points for pathogens. Look for this in sweet potatoes, carrots, broccoli, spinach, red bell peppers, apricots and eggs.
- Vitamin C – helps stimulate your body to create antibodies. Sources include citrus fruits such as oranges, grapefruit and tangerines, or red bell pepper, papaya, strawberries and tomato juice.
- Vitamin E – functions as an antioxidant and is found in sunflower seeds, almonds, vegetable oils (such as sunflower or safflower oil), hazelnuts and peanut butter.
- Zinc – helps wounds heal. Look for this in lean meat, poultry, seafood, milk, whole grain products, beans, seeds and nuts.
