Italy's Christmas Rx To Fight The Flu!

                            The 7 Fishes Rx To Prevent Illness! 

With Christmas less than a week away, you may want to adopt the tradition used
by Italians for some time now. And what tradition is that?
Cooking a meal using 7 types of fish. 

And why should you adopt this tradition?
It could help you prevent or fight the flu (if you're already sick)
That's right, the Christmas eve meal is an excellent defense against the flu.
Eating foods (like oysters, clams and other shellfish) enhances the body's
production of flu-clobbering proteins called cytokines. 

And if salmon isn't part of your 7 fishes dinner, it should be, why?
It'll help strengthen your immune system, and a strong immune system
is another great weapon in your arsenal against Winter colds. 

And lastly, make sure to add plenty of inexpensive herbs and spices
to your fish dinner. Spices and herbs like oregano, parsley, cumin,
coriander, turmeric, cayenne, curry powder, dill and rosemary also 
strengthen your immune system.

Good Luck and Good Eating!
