Nutritionist Hsia Tzu-wen (夏子雯) said that inflammation and fever after vaccination is a normal response of the immune system. However, people must try to avoid eating deep-fried, salty, and high-sugar foods to prevent their bodies from being inflamed. People can adopt healthier eating habits to strengthen the cells in their bodies, like eating more fruits and vegetables and drinking more water.
