🍊 No single food will save you from cold season. Variety will.

These 15 are loaded with the vitamins and minerals your immune system runs on, mostly vitamin C, vitamin E, and zinc.

A few that surprise people: 
🔸 Red bell peppers have nearly three times the vitamin C of an orange.
🔸 One small papaya covers your full daily vitamin C.
🔸 Shellfish like oysters and crab are some of the best zinc sources there are.

💬 Comment IMMUNE and we'll send you how much of each you actually need.
