Tonight my husband walks into the kitchen and he says, “They’re advising people to stock up on food so they don’t have to go to the grocery store.” I said, “We do a lot to fight off things that are going around.” But it got me thinking: all the vitamin C, vitamin D, probiotics, bone broth, the highest nutrient dense diet, whatever vitamins and food you do to keep your immune system strong, it’s really not enough to prevent getting sick, in my…
