The 11 Best Foods For Boosting Your Toddler's Immune System

Peanuts are naturally chock-full of nutrients. Two in particular, vitamin E and copper, play important roles in the immune system, and may help keep your little peanut healthy.

Whole peanuts are not typically recommended to toddlers because they can be a choking hazard. A thin spread of natural creamy peanut butter (no added salt, sugar, or fillers) on a piece of toast or crushed peanuts mixed into a yogurt are excellent ways to expose your little one to this important legume. Or try some peanut butter as a sauce on pasta instead of a traditional red sauce — yum!
