Sports Nutrition Guide by Lisa Dorfman, M.S., R.D.

 

Flu-fighting ingredients: " Chili is great for sweating out the flu, "

says Dorfman. " The phytochemical capsaicin, which is found in the

jalapenos, acts as a metabolic stimulator to increase the body's heat

and encourage the intake of liquids (which, in turn, will help flush

the system of germs). The onions will boost immunity too, and the

tomatoes provide you with vitamin A and C. "

Notes: I love adding more peppers and chili power to make a very

spiicy chili.
