People seem to be pleasantly surprised when they learn that avocados may help support a healthy immune system. Not only are these yummy green fruits loaded with vitamins A, C, and E, their healthy fats that they contain actually help the body absorb the fat-soluble vitamins. Avocados are also a source of glutathione, an antioxidant associated with immune system health.
Pro tip: If your kiddo is having a hard time hanging onto a piece of avocado (they can sometimes be a bit slimy), coat them in crushed graham crackers, milled flax seeds, or other foods that give the fruit slice a little traction.
