Below is a short list of foods that support the health of your Immune System

**With a little research you can find many, many more!

• Healthy Fats - Essential Fatty Acids in the form of cold-water fish supplements (Omega 3) and Mono-unsaturated fats found in olive oil and a wide range of nuts and seeds.
• High Fiber Foods - Whole fresh ORGANIC fruits & vegetables. High fiber is very important for maintaining a healthy gastrointestinal system by promoting a healthy barrier inside your digestive tract as well as removing toxins through regular bowel movements.
• Vitamin C - Citrus fruit is the most well-known for its high concentration of Vitamin C, but there are also a number of vegetables that are high in Vitamin C as well and here is a list of just a few: Bok Choy, Broccoli, Brussel Sprouts, Butternut Squash, Winter Squash, Cabbage, Cauliflower, Green Pepper, Kale, Sweet Potatoes, Swiss Chard. (full vegetable nutrition chart here: Vegetable Nutrition Chart)
• B-Vitamins – again vegetables are some of the best sources to obtain b-vitamins. Romaine Lettuce contains B1, B2, C & B9 (folic acid), Turnip Greens & Steamed Spinach contain B9 & B6.
• Antioxidants – some great sources for antioxidants would be berries (blueberries, raspberries, boysenberries, blackberries, cranberries), cherries, carrots, tomatoes and garlic. Garlic is an amazing immune booster food and can be eaten raw or lightly cooked. The best way to utilize garlic is to add it at the end of cooking. You can also look for garlic supplement brands, such as Kyolic, that does not leave a taste or odor in your mouth.

The brighter the fruit or vegetable, the richer the vitamin and antioxidant content. When you are shopping look for organic fresh, crisp and richly colored fruits and vegetables. By increasing your intake of fruits and vegetables you are not only going to provide your body with vitamins and other nutrients that will help your immune system fight the battle during flu season, but you will be providing adequate fiber (soluble and insoluble) which will reduce those junk food cravings and the tendency to overeat the foods that are most detrimental to you and your health.
