Cold and flu season is here, so it’s time to rev up your immune system to ensure you are able to fight back against any infections. Thankfully, many of your favorite holiday foods are packed with nutrition to help you fight off any germs. For example, cranberries are excellent to eat because they are antioxidant-rich and can combat oxidative stress in the body and decrease inflammation. Both of these actions work to promote immune health and eating ¼ cup of cranberries is only 12 calories. Now that’s a win, win situation for you and your diet!
