Staying healthy is on everyone’s minds right now, and diet and nutrition play a huge part in helping your body battle COVID-19. To get the best advice on how to keep your immune system strong, we talked with longtime New Mobility contributor Joanne Smith. Smith is a certified nutritionist and the co-author of Eat Well, Live Well with Spinal Cord Injury & Other Neurological Conditions. We asked her what to eat, where to shop and how to stock up for weeks at a time, all without breaking the bank.

One thing to keep in mind as you continue reading this article:
Please disregard where it reads to help build your immune system.
reminder: With MS, our immune systems are already over-active.
Normally, we do not need an immune system builder.
PLEASE speak with your medical office before ingesting anything to increase our immune system.
Eating healthy is a natural way in which to keep your immune system healthy.
