10. Immunity and Diet
© 2020 Zipongo CONFIDENTIAL

11. So…what should I be eating?
Eat a balanced diet: fruits, vegetables,
whole grains, beans, legumes, nuts, seeds,
healthy animal protein sources like
seafood and poultry
● Fruits and vegetables
● Lean and plant-based protein
● Complex carbohydrates
● Healthy fats
● Water

Boosting recipes for balanced recipes
that support a healthy immune system

12. Fasting Glucose Levels & Coronavirus Risk
© 2017 Zipongo CONFIDENTIAL
What is fasting glucose? The amount of glucose (sugar) in the
bloodstream after an overnight fast
© 2020 Zipongo CONFIDENTIAL
There is a clear link between fasting glucose and
overall coronavirus risk (connected to pneumonia
outcomes).
The best way to control fasting glucose, in
the short- and long-term, is improved diet.

13. How to Avoid the “Snack-Attack”
Set up your home environment:
Make healthy eating the easier choice
● Put a fruit bowl on your kitchen table so
it’s easily accessible during the day
● Keep cookies, chips and processed
foods in the back of your pantry to
make them more difficult to access
● Keep a carafe of water nearby

14. How to Avoid the “Snack-Attack”
Smart snacking strategies:
Build healthy, filling snacks that will satisfy
● Aim to incorporate at least two out of
these three macronutrients with each
snack: fiber, protein, and healthy fat
● Meal plan your snacks - go to the
grocery store (or to order online) with a
list of your healthy snacks so you aren’t
tempted by all of those unhealthy
options!

schedule, family responsibilities, and a whole lot of stockpiled
