Immunity Booster: Fish Oil

By Charmaine Gooden

Omega-3 fatty acids support the immune system by increasing the  activity of phagocytes, the white blood cells that eat up bacteria. Fish oil is a powerful anti-inflammatory and plays a role in cardiovascular health, skin conditions, auto-immune diseases and mental health. Supplements are a blend EPA and DHA, available in capsules and liquid.

Eat omega-3 food sources like cold-water fish, such as Alaskan salmon, mackerel, sardines, herring, and black cod 2-3 times/week
