Community Dietitian Louise Spence from The Pas Primary Health Care Centre spoke to Arctic Radio about what foods people should eat to stay healthy during the pandemic and how a healthy diet can help with the immune system.

She says there are no known foods or nutrients that can boost the effectiveness of COVID 19 vaccines, but choosing less processed foods may help to build an immune response with a vaccine.

Protein rich foods including plant based proteins help to make antibodies that will fight off viruses.
