Ginger: You might not want to skip out on ginger next time you’re out for sushi! This powerfully potent plant can help to reduce inflammation, soothe a sore throat, and protect against cold viruses. Sip on ginger throat soother or a ginger infused tea, and have ginger chews readily available when the sore throat strikes!

Soup: Your grandma wasn’t lying when she said soup would cure your cold! Not only is soup rich in immune-boosting vitamins, it can also help to reduce congestion and soothe a sore throat. Stock up on healthy soups this Winter season, to keep your immune system healthy and strong.
