<|im_start|>assistant
Some good hygiene practices include washing your hands frequently with soap and water, especially after using the bathroom and before eating, covering your mouth when you cough or sneeze, and avoiding close contact with people who are sick.<|im_end|>

That makes sense. What are some healthy foods that can help my immune system?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Foods rich in vitamins and antioxidants, such as citrus fruits, berries, leafy greens, and nuts, can help support your immune system. Additionally, foods high in omega-3 fatty acids, like salmon and other fatty fish, can also be beneficial.<|im_end|>
