AOL.com • • health
Key Points:
- Garlic supports immune health, but other foods like citrus fruits, bell peppers, leafy greens, yogurt, and fatty fish may offer greater immune-boosting benefits.
- Citrus fruits are rich in vitamin C and antioxidants that increase white blood cell production and reduce inflammation, lowering the risk of respiratory infections.
- Bell peppers provide vitamin C, beta-carotene, and lycopene, which support immunity and have anti-inflammatory properties.
- Yogurt contains probiotics that promote a healthy gut microbiome, which is closely linked to immune function.
- Fatty fish are high in omega-3 fatty acids that reduce inflammation, support cell health, and improve gut bacteria, enhancing the body's ability to fight infections.
