What can I eat to boost my immunity?

Everyone should pay attention to physical immunity, because physical immunity is the first barrier to physical health. If the immunity is low, you will suffer from many diseases. Especially for those who often stay at home and don’t like to exercise, their immunity is low and they are prone to catching colds when the seasons change. In real life, in addition to exercise to enhance immunity, paying attention to diet in life can also enhance your own immunity.

Daily diet conditioning is to improve the body's immune ability:

1. Drink more yogurt: stick to a balanced diet. If a person is alcoholic, mentally stressed or has an unbalanced diet, it will weaken his or her disease resistance. To correct this imbalance, we must rely on health-promoting bacteria, which are found in yogurt. When purchasing, be sure to pay attention to the production date of the yogurt. If the production date is vague, it means it has been tampered with, so be careful.

2. Drink more boiled water: Remember, it is boiled water! This can keep the mucous membranes in the nose and mouth moist; drinking more water can also make people feel refreshed and full of energy. Studies have shown that boiled water has a very ideal physiological activity effect on human metabolism. Water can easily pass through the cell membrane and be absorbed by the body, which enhances the activity of lactate dehydrogenase in human organs, thereby effectively improving the body's disease resistance and immunity. Especially the first glass of cold boiled water in the morning is particularly important.

3. Eat more seafood: Seafood is rich in iron, zinc, magnesium, selenium, copper, etc. Regular consumption can promote immune function.

4. Drink tea regularly: Scientists have discovered that tea contains a chemical called theanine. Because it can mobilize the body's immune cells to resist bacteria, fungi and viruses, it can increase the body's ability to resist infection by more than 5 times.

5. You may want to drink some red wine: Most alcoholic beverages will suppress the human immune system, but red wine is just the opposite. Some of the antioxidants it contains are very beneficial for enhancing immune function and are also beneficial for protecting the heart.

6. Eat some animal liver: Animal liver contains folic acid, selenium, zinc, magnesium, iron, copper, and vitamins B6, B12, etc. These substances help promote immune function.

7. Studies have found that Cordyceps sinensis can effectively increase the number of immune system cells and tissues, promote antibody production, increase the number of phagocytic and killer cells, and reduce the function of certain immune cells. It is the first choice for enhancing human immunity. In China, the Fulinmen Cordyceps sinensis produced in Nagqu, Tibet at an altitude of 4,200 meters has a higher content of natural cordycepin and has a more significant anti-cancer effect.

8. Appropriate iron supplementation: Iron can enhance immunity; however, excessive iron intake is harmful to the body and should not exceed 45 mg per day.

9. Supplement glutamine: It is an indispensable non-essential amino acid for the human body and can be regarded as one of the "weapons" for strengthening the immune system. People who often suffer from colds or diarrhea can add glutamine powder to juice or cold boiled water.

10. Supplement arginine: Sea cucumbers, eels, loaches, cuttlefish, yam, black sesame, ginkgo, tofu skin, frozen tofu, sunflower seeds, and hazelnuts are rich in this substance. Eating more of them can help enhance immunity.

11. Timely supplement of zinc to improve body immunity

Zinc is a component of many important enzymes in the human body. It catalyzes life activities, promotes children's growth and development, regeneration of body tissues, helps children improve their own immunity, and participates in the metabolism of vitamin A.
