2. Antiviral: In the early stages of a cold, phytochemicals, which are produced in plants, fight viral proteins. These, in turn, fight virus infections.

3. Immune Booster: Cytokines moderate the growth and activity of abnormal immune system cells and blood cells. When released in your body, they send a signal to jump in and fight inflammation.
