alive’s April 2021 Challenge: Cook for Immune Health

Hey there, did you get your meditation on in March?

Next up? In April, we challenge you to cook for immune health. This is more than just an excuse to put beloved immune-boosting ingredients like ginger and garlic in EVERYTHING. This is your chance to appreciate how the foods you eat can support your immunity.

Let’s protect our health, one meal at a time.

As you probably know by now, each week of alive’s 12 Months of Wellness focuses on one mini goal as a stepping stone toward the bigger monthly objective. You’ll find the weekly focuses with key tips below. You can also download, screenshot, or print out our PDF calendar with daily to-dos.
