Introduction to methods to enhance immunity

If our immunity is low, we will get sick easily, especially catching a cold. We often see some people who always catch a cold easily. This is because their immunity is too low. But how can we enhance our immunity? This is what many people want to know. There are many ways to enhance immunity. There are some foods that can enhance immunity, and there are some medicines. Let's take a look.

Ways to enhance immune function:

1. Increase the absorption of antioxidants. Antioxidants are chemicals found in foods that boost the immune system. You can boost your immune system by taking antioxidant supplements:

Take 1000 IU of vitamin E daily. Vitamin E comes in two forms: d-vitamin E and dl-vitamin E. D-Vitamin E is the natural form and can be absorbed more quickly by the body.

1000 mg of vitamin C per day. You can also get vitamin C by eating two citrus fruits every day.

Beta carotene, no more than 10,000 IU per day

Selenium, 200 mcg per day

Zinc, no more than 500 mg per day

Alpha lipoic acid, 50 mg per day

Glutathione, 50 mg per day

2. Drink green tea every day because it contains a lot of antioxidants flavonoids and theacin. Eat more tomatoes and other red and dark-colored fruits.

3. Do not do strenuous exercise during this period. Because strenuous exercise can suppress immune system function (the immune system function related to upper respiratory tract infections). If you have developed a habit of regular exercise, you can do some light or moderate exercise during this time.

4. Make sure to eat enough carbohydrate foods, such as rice and other starchy foods. Because carbohydrates are the most important food for immune cells.

5. Ensure adequate sleep every day and do not put yourself under tension and stress. Anxiety and tension will affect the body's stress hormones, thereby suppressing the body's immune function.

6. Although masks cannot prevent infection 100%, they can play a certain role in reducing the chance of infection.

Now you all know how to enhance immunity. Only when the immunity is good can our body be healthier. We should be aware of this issue in our daily lives. We should exercise more, increase the nutrition of our diet, and develop reasonable eating and resting habits to better enhance immunity.
