Immunity

The immune system is the protective system of our body. Every day, our body faces attacks from the outside. Bacteria, viruses, and other types of malicious parasites try to reach our body to circulate and weaken our immune system. The role of the immune system is to protect our body from all these threats. Therefore, it is important to strengthen it.

Some basic guidelines on how to help and make our immune system healthy and effective are to provide it with enough quality sleep, physical activity, and, above all, a variety of fruits and vegetables. Plant-based foods and whole grains are rich in vitamins, minerals, as well as antioxidants, which can help fight against harmful microorganisms. In addition to providing sufficient amounts of minerals and vitamins, it is equally important to provide the body with an adequate amount of high-quality healthy fats, rich in fish, chia seeds, nuts, etc. Omega-3 fatty acids have been proven to contribute to the fight against inflammation in the body. In addition to taking omega-3, probiotics are highly recommended. Taking probiotics leads to increased secretion of mucin (mucus that protects the surface of the intestine), inhibits the growth of bad bacteria in the intestine, and helps the body fight microorganisms.

Preventive intake of vitamin C in a dose of 100-200 mg per day helps the immune system and positively affects inflammatory cells (increases their activity). In addition, a deficiency of vitamin D increases the chances of developing infections and autoimmune diseases. Its deficiency is manifested by fatigue, muscle weakness, depression, insomnia, frequent infections, and headaches. Zinc in the body is involved in the development of immune cells, and its deficiency can potentiate their apoptosis (death). Taking 75 mg of zinc during illness/cold can shorten the duration of the disease. Beta-glucan is one of the most widespread supplements when it comes to immunity. This supplement is made by isolating it from yeast and fungi and has been proven to lower cholesterol levels in the blood. It is also said to stimulate the production of leukocytes and platelets, activate macrophages, strengthen immunity, alleviate symptoms of colds and flu, and upper respiratory infections.
