4. Garlic
Is there anything garlic is not good for? OK, your breath aside, it’s some serious medicine, no matter how you take it! Garlic is one of the best immune boosters around.
It’s well-known that people who eat a lot of garlic get very few viruses. Garlic’s active ingredients are alllicin, and allion, both of which are powerful antiviral and antioxidants that are great at fighting off viruses. If you can deal with the strong taste, lightly crush two cloves of garlic and swallow them whole to keep colds and flus from finding you.
In 2007 garlic was reported to help prevent the common cold as well as fight symptoms, according to a study published in the BBC. If you can’t deal with that, simply add garlic to your daily food dishes, or take some supplements. Maybe one of the best things about eating some raw garlic is that your breath just might keep people who are sick at a safe distance!
