What is the best diet to boost our immune system?
Update 23 March 2020. I wrote the original article below on the premise that Alkaline diets alter our blood PH to be more alkaline which increases oxygen in our blood which boosts our immune system. I found information on two different websites that say the Alkaline diet does not change the bodies PH. Therefore, I am wrong. The ultimate question is: what foods are best to boost our bodies immune system? Lesson learned: write about your area of expertise. Nutrition is not my area of expertise. Any advice is welcome. :)
Proponents of the diet believe that certain foods can affect the acidity (pH) of the body and that the change in pH can therefore be used to treat or prevent disease. Credible laboratories have done extensive research on this subject and have proven the theory to be false... Wikipedia
Some people report that the alkaline diet raises the body’s pH to make it less acidic and more alkaline. The diet’s proponents say that this promotes weight loss and fights disease. However, there is no evidence to prove this. Medical News Today
What both articles do say is that an alkaline diet has beneficial effects on the body but the beneficial effects are not due to changes in blood PH.
Plus, as one comment suggested, milk may be good for fighting infections.
I stand corrected and I am open to hearing from people smarter than me. The question is, what is the best diet to boost your bodies immune system?

They don’t drink milk when they are sick with Corona Virus. Would you like to know why drinking milk is bad when you are sick?
They don’t eat fish when they are sick. Would you like to know why eating high protein food is bad when you are sick?
If you want to increase your chance of a swift recovery from the Corona Virus then I recommend eating foods that make your body alkaline (foods that increase your oxygen). Milk and fish make your body acidic (they decrease your oxygen levels).

First we need to ask. What is an acidic body? What is an alkaline body?
An acidic body means your blood is like lemon juice (acidic).
An alkaline body means your blood is like milk (alkaline).
When your body is alkaline (like milk) then there is more Oxygen in your blood. The cells in your body need a lot oxygen to be super strong and fight against the Corona Virus.
The cells in your body need a lot oxygen to be super strong and fight against the Corona Virus.
Remember that the Corona Virus attacks your cells. Your cells are the soldiers that fight the virus. The cells need oxygen to fight. The more oxygen they have the better they can fight the Corona virus.
What should you eat and drink to help your cells to fight against the Corona Virus?
- Eat fruits high in Vitamin C like oranges and lemons.
- Eat fruits like watermelon, bananas and tomatoes.
- Eat vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower and avocado.
- Eat nuts like almonds.
- Drink lemon juice, water melon juice and green tea.
These foods and drinks make your body alkaline and maximize the amount of oxygen in your body.
On the contrary, don't eat high protein foods like fish, meat, cheese, cereals and fast food because they make your body acidic. An acidic body holds less oxygen therefore has less strength to fight against the virus.
Your body is your best pharmacy. Your body is the best defense that you have. If you feed your body the right food then it produces its own medicine to fight the Corona Virus.

4yI wouldn't agree with not drinking milk in sickness caused by any virus. Drinking COLD milk is excellent for health and it helps body recover fast. It instantly removes acidity and gas. Having it with a little bit of turmeric into it is the best remedy.
