Chicken soup– Always an excellent choice If you make it with plenty of veggies

Get your gut health up to speed to increase your immune response– Dr. Todd Born, a certified naturopathic physician and certified nutrition specialist says “A diverse and healthy microbial community in the gut will influence the immune system directly”, so foods like yogurt, kimchi, kefir and sauerkraut can help out with that.
