9 Foods You Should Eat To Get Better When You’re Sick

3. Garlic

Garlic isn’t just a great way to ward off vampires, but also common anti-viral and anti-fungal infections. As always, prevention is better than cure, but eating more garlic when your sick can also have the same effect of stimulating the immune= system.

In fact, a study found that people who consumed garlic on a daily basis have fewer sick days than those that don’t, and they tend to get better faster when they do fall sick. You can add garlic to your food like soups, or take it in pill form, although the fresh version is always better.
