Don’t forget protein
Protein is made up of amino acids – chemical building blocks – which are essential to support the body's immune system, helping with healing and recovery. The recommended daily intake of protein for adults is around 0.03oz per 2.2lb of body weight in Australia and the UK, and ever-so-slightly more in Canada and the US. That's around 1.5oz for the average woman and 2oz for the average man. Protein-rich foods include seafood, lean meat, poultry, eggs, beans, peas, soya products (like tofu), nuts, and seeds.
