Thus, Ginsburg added, eating eggs contributes to recovery from a cold. This product provides the body with high-quality, well-absorbed protein.
As for anti-inflammatory components, honey and berries can be sources for ARVI. Their use also speeds up recovery from a cold.
“A product such as honey can speed up recovery. It can be added to tea in small quantities. Berry compotes and fruit drinks are very good,” Ginzburg told Moscow 24.
