I'm just getting over a flu that I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy. Needless to say it was bad and I'm trying to stay healthy the rest of the winter season.

Obviously chicken noddle soup is on the list. However, more unique foods like Oysters and Kiwi's made the list as well. The site state that oysters are "the best natural source of zinc" and that kiwi's are stacked with "micro nutrients" that "significantly enhanced the concentration of immunity-boosting erythrocytes in red blood cells."

Honey, almonds, yogurt and garlic also made the list.
