If you’re feeling a little worn out and want to stop that cold before it even starts, try adding the following fruits and veggies to your regular diet. And don’t forget to get plenty of water, sleep, and exercise. Simple, right? Here’s what you need to feel healthy and ward off those germs.

Mushrooms – Enoki, shitake, reishi, maitake and oyster have nutrients that help boost the immune system and are known for keeping their nutrient integrity even when cooked.

Kale, Broccoli, Lettuce and Cabbage – Leafy green veggies like these boost the liver’s ability to flush out toxins and support liver and immune function.

Avocado – Delicious avocados contain essential amino acids and antioxidants, keeping adrenal glands functioning well.

Ginger – A well-known cold remedy, ginger breaks down toxins in the lungs and sinuses and helps cleanse the lymphatic system when you’re congested.

Oranges, Kiwis, Berries, and Apples – Having colorful fruits that are rich in vitamins C and E will naturally help your body fight off infections.

Graviola – Known as a natural immunity booster, the graviola fruit is often used to treat common colds and the flu because of its ability to reduce fevers and kill off parasites.

Sleep  – You’re more likely to catch a cold when you’re tired and sleep deprived, which means your body hasn’t had time to rest, recuperate, and rebuild its strength. Get more sleep (about 7 hours per night) to help fight off germs and boost your immune system.

Exercise – Regular exercise (even just 30 minutes per day) gets your body moving, keeps it healthy, and allows your immune system to become stronger.
