NURSE OWENS' HEALTH TIP
Consume Immunity-Boosting Foods
As the weather gets colder and flu season starts, your immune system needs to be in tip-top shape. Eating healthy foods with vitamin C (like limes, oranges, and clementines) is critical to fighting infections. Garlic, ginger, spinach, and almonds are big winners in boosting your health and immunity.
