Jumpstart your immune system with these 7 foods
Oysters
If you live near the sea then you're in luck! Oysters are rich in zinc (21mg per 100g), a useful oligoelement when it comes to boosting your immune system. It's important to get the right amount of zinc in your diet in order to avoid a mineral deficiency. If you can't find oysters near you, then other foods rich in zinc are shellfish, whole-wheat carbohydrates, beans, lentils and nuts.
