Immune Support Meal Plan
The immune system is your front-line defense against anything foreign to your body. It identifies, remembers, attacks, and destroys disease-causing invaders. It is the body’s surveillance system, therefore protecting you from diseases. What you eat has a huge impact on how well your immune system functions.
Reducing your exposure to viruses and bacteria by washing your hands, covering up when you cough, and avoiding contact with your eyes, nose, and mouth is important. There is also a certain level of exposure that you cannot prevent. When this exposure occurs it is important for the immune system to be up to the challenge.
These antioxidant-rich, nutrient-dense meal plans focus on key nutrients that support the immune system including vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, and selenium. These meal plans include a wide variety of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to support the immune system therefore actively strengthening our immunity and natural defenses.

This program includes five key nutrients:
- Vitamin C – Vitamin C is an essential micronutrient that supports various cellular functions of our immune system. A lack of vitamin C can make you more prone to getting sick. This plan provides an average of 500 mg per day of vitamin C from whole food sources like oranges, red bell peppers, broccoli, and mango.
- Zinc – Zinc is an essential mineral critical for immune function. Even a mild to moderate zinc deficiency can impair immune function and increase the risk of respiratory infections. You can find zinc sources in this meal plan from whole grains, legumes, oats, nuts, and seeds.
- Vitamin A – Vitamin A is a fat-soluble antioxidant involved in the cellular immune response and provides enhanced defense against multiple infectious diseases. This meal plan is high in vitamin A sources like sweet potato, mango, bell peppers, and dark leafy greens. These foods are paired with healthy fats to increase vitamin A absorption.
- Selenium – Selenium is an essential mineral that is required for the function of almost every arm of the immune system. This program incorporates foods high in selenium like nuts, beans, and oats to help you reach your goal intake.
- Vitamin E – Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that helps the body fight off infection. Diets high in vitamin E improve cellular immunity by protecting against cell damage. This program incorporates vitamin E through a daily dose of nuts and nut butter.
