“Eat your vegetables. They’re good for you.”

In days gone by that was a common saying heard around many dinner tables. How right our parents were. Whether you like vegetables or not, it’s undeniable that putting more of them in your diet will greatly improve your immune system.

If you want to keep your immune system strong and healthy, the best way to do that is to cut way down on high fat and processed foods, and increase your intake of low fat foods.

Studies have proven that reducing the amount of fat in your diet, increases the potency of your healthy immune cells. These are the cells that help you fight off infections.

Here are some of the foods that can boost your immune system:

  • Broccoli
  • Brussel sprouts
  • Cantaloupe
  • Carrots
  • Grapefruit
  • Oranges
  • Radishes
  • Rose hips tea
  • Rutabagas
  • Spinach
  • Sweet potatoes

All of the above foods contain high amounts of Vitamin C – a proven antioxidant. Adding more of these foods to your daily diet (and cutting back on fatty foods) will help you fight off colds and viruses.
