Comfort foods and colds
Posted on by Dave Ashton

Under the weather? 😷

Your diet may be making it worse!

Fox News reports that the comfort foods we lean on can actually make us feel worse!

Stay away from:

  • Spicy foods
  • Alcohol
  • Fried, greasy foods
  • Sugary drinks

Have instead:

  • Broths
  • Herbal teas
  • Oatmeal
  • Rice
  • Bananas
  • Berries
  • Leafy greens
  • Tofu

We want you back at 100%…don’t derail your immune system!
