Knowing what to eat to strengthen the immune system means that you are helping the body not to be affected by the bacteria and viruses of the season.

In fact, there are many foods that help increase the body's immunity, but in this article we will mention the most important ones that are also seasonal products.

Spinach is a great source of vitamin C and folic acid, therefore contributing to the body's defense against bacteria. This green vegetable is also able to keep the body well hydrated

Broccoli has anti-inflammatory properties and is known as an excellent source of mineral salts, thus being an essential ally against the flu. It is recommended to cook them in steam, adding the taste with a little salt and olive oil, since in this way they keep their organoleptic properties unchanged.

Eating garlic inhibits the growth of bacteria. It is also one of the foods that improves the immune system. Garlic contains sulfur, which is a substance that inhibits the growth of bacteria and keeps the digestive system clean. Therefore, those who include garlic in their food diets have a 50% less risk of being affected by seasonal diseases.

Pomegranate is not only an excellent ally for the skin, but also a fruit rich in nutrients, antioxidants and vitamins. These properties make it a perfect fruit to fight colds and flu and in general to prevent seasonal diseases. Consume 1 or 2 every day at this time of the year and be sure that the bacteria are away from your body.

Honey is considered an excellent food for healing some types of diseases, but it is especially mentioned for protecting the body against viruses. It contains vitamins A, B, C and healthy minerals such as copper, iron, phosphorus, selenium, unsaturated fatty acids and calcium. Taking a teaspoon of honey in the morning on an empty stomach would help prevent infections.
