“In winter we need to increase our immunity system, as the body is prone to catching various diseases like colds, influenza and viral diseases. So for that we should take anti-oxidants, vitamin A, and vitamin C. which is found in carrot, pea, fenugreek leaves, spinach, pumpkin, orange and apple.

Spices like ginger, garlic, clove, and turmeric are very good to protect your body in the cold weather. And to keep the body warm green tea, hot chocolate and regular tea is best,” says nutritionist RD Dixit.
