Here are some of the best foods for preventing a cold and/or getting rid of a cold or flu:

Honey: This natural sweetener has antimicrobial properties, making it a top-notch contender when it comes to naturally fighting off viruses.

Add some honey to hot water and lemon and have honey lemon throat lozenges and throat spray on hand for those days when you need a little immunity boost!

Garlic: An ancient home remedy for the cold and flu, garlic is known for its antibacterial and antiviral properties. Consume raw garlic to maintain a healthy immune system or at the first sign of sickness and incorporate fresh, garlic-rich foods into your diet.

Elderberry: Rich in antioxidants and Vitamin C, elderberry is a great natural remedy that can fight off flu viruses. Sip on a tea infused with elderberry and echinacea, and have a natural cold syrup ready for the first signs of sickness this cold season.

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.
