Smart Nutrition: The Facts About Food And Immune Health

Flickr

Licensed nutritionist Monica Reinagel talks about the relationship between healthy eating and our immune system.  

 

Can we eat certain foods to boost our immunity?  Are there foods we should avoid because they might suppress immunity?  And, how can we shop strategically, to minimize the trips we need to make to the grocery store?

 

Monica Reinagel is the host of the Nutrition Diva podcast.  She blogs for the Huffington Post and Scientific American.

Heard on the show: a new Omni Calculator that tells you how much food you need to purchase for two weeks of quarantine.  

This innovative tool is the invention of Polish dietician, and Ph.D candidate Joanna Michalowska. It's called the Quarantine Food Calculator. Click here to give it a try.
