Video Description:The workplace can be a source of major "ick" as far as germs are concerned. Here's how to arm your immune system against them! Transcript:Your immune system is your body’s “army” which works 24/7 to protect you from invading viruses and bacterium.  A meal of just garlic cloves may look a bit sparse, but it’s the first way to get your army ready to fight invaders! Taking care of your immune system is like providing your body’s army with better weapons.  Start by getting garlicky!  Garlic also boosts white blood cell count, and acts as an antioxidant which neutralizes the harmful effects of free-radicals. Or try loading your plate with beef. Beef is rich in zinc, which increases white blood cells, your body’s first line of defense against invaders. If you like to avoid red meat, try oysters or crab, which are also incredibly rich sources of the nutrient. If nothing else, that healthy dose of garlic will boost wellness by encouraging sick people to stay far away from you!
