Foods for Immunity: How to Eat for Your Health this Cold Season
When it comes to getting and staying well during cold and flu season, your top defense is with the food you eat. At our panel on Nov. 9, 2017, we talked to board-certified internist, functional medicine doctor, and author of “The Happy Gut,” Dr. Vincent Pedre, health coach and author of “The Real Food Grocery Guide,” Maria Marlowe, and INDAY founder Basu Ratnam (they hosted!) about their best tips for eating for immunity.
![I used to spend all of Sunday regretting my eating out choices, and if I had too much 🍷 really beating myself up for it. Now I realize that giving myself a hard time about things in the past doesn't actually make me change. It's being excited about getting a bunch of things at the farmer's market, making some yummy meals for the week, going to a yoga class and not feeling terrible while I'm there... that motivates me to have less 🍷 or choose to make a meal at home or go stock up on nourishing food for the week. The past is the past. It literally helps nothing when you get stuck looking back. This is what I tell a lot of people about the WellBe Spark Health Program. Who cares if you've been using toxic products and are glued to your phone in bed and don't move much and eat food full of weird crap often? The body is incredibly resilient if you give it an opportunity to recover. Swapping out certain things and trying on some different habits for a few weeks can have a major impact on your short and long term health.
