To strengthen the immune system after winter, it is not necessary to drink pills and vitamins. How to start strengthening your own body with the help of nutrition correction and what products are suitable for this purpose, said V.A. Egorova Galina Uryadova.
– The approach of spring is certainly a long-awaited time for many. But, besides the awakening of nature, early spring can bring with it trouble as a sudden cold or flu. Often, even those who bravely endured the winter without illness, with the approach of March, lose ground and may get hurt. How to avoid this? To start with a simple one – to strengthen immunity. This process is versatile and most effective with an integrated approach.
Firstly, it is necessary to eat foods containing zinc, which have a beneficial effect on the body’s defenses (legumes, eggs, fish, oatmeal).
Secondly, fresh cucumbers, tomatoes, greens, and also other boiled or baked vegetables are priceless sources of fiber, which helps to eliminate toxins from the body. In addition, it contains vitamins and minerals necessary for the effective functioning of the immune system.
Thirdly, you need to introduce pumpkin, carrots, oranges and other vegetables and fruits of orange and yellow colors into your diet. This solar palette contains vitamins A, E, C and bioflavonoids with antiviral and antioxidant properties.
Fourth, in order to maintain heart function and stimulate kidney function, it will be beneficial to consume dried fruits, berries and apples.
Fifth, juices and fruit drinks, as well as mineral water, are also indispensable helpers for the body, as they help free it from toxins.
Speaking about what is useful for the immune system, one cannot but recall products that are not useful for the immune system at all: fatty foods, smoked meats and pickles, sweets, an abundance of flour products, alcoholic and caffeinated drinks. The consumption of these products is best limited.
We should not forget that the correction of the diet for effective prevention and strengthening of the immune system is not enough. A healthy life is movement. We have been taught this truth since childhood, it does not lose its relevance to this day. Even if there is no time for the gym and morning runs, do exercises, walk with the whole family, love to walk. Walking will help to relax, relieve stress after a hard day, strengthen the nervous system.
Wet and regularly ventilate. Cleanliness and fresh air – a completely uncomfortable environment for the existence of viruses.
And the last rule that must be observed to maintain health: if you failed to protect yourself from the disease, consult a doctor, self-medication can sometimes be too expensive.
Take care of yourself and your loved ones, healthy spring for all of us!
