Are you getting your vaccine soon and nervous about the side effects? Experts are saying that your food intake before and after can help reduce anything you might feel after. So what helps? A healthy diet of vegetables, fruits, and whole grains and protein sources like fish, poultry, and eggs is recommended. Try and avoid red meat and dairy before the appointment. Ginger tea can also help with your stomach after the vaccine. Doctors recommend not doing “anything drastic like juicing or detox.”
