Nourishment Notes

Ginger

Ginger is known for its anti-nausea properties, which can help to soothe an upset stomach. The anti-nausea effect is increased when paired with a protein, such as chicken.

Snow Peas

Snow peas are an excellent source of vitamin C. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant and is important for the immune system.

Chicken

Chicken is a good source of lean protein. Protein needs may be elevated if fighting an active infection.
