These 11 Foods Help You Destroy Germs and Viruses, Science Says

Immunity booster: Sunflower seeds

Nutritionists always encourage adding a mix of seeds to your salads or consuming them as a snack for their nutritional benefits. However, sunflower seeds are particularly beneficial due to their wide range of nutrients such as:

• Magnesium
• Phosphorus
• Vitamin B-6
• Vitamin E

Each of these micronutrients can strengthen your immune system, especially vitamin E, which is essential to help immune cells function at maximum capacity when needed.

Specialist recommend eating between 1 ounce (30 grams) and a large handful of sunflower seeds daily because they’re just healthy and harmless. If you’re going to eat fried varieties that contain sodium (salt), you might want to stick to the minimum recommended intake.
