People usually call the human body's resistance to foreign invasion, recognition and rejection "immunity". Human immunity mostly depends on genes, but the environment also has great influence, such as diet, sleep, exercise, stress and so on. Among them, diet has a decisive influence, because some food ingredients can help stimulate the immune system and enhance immune ability. If these important nutrients are lacking, it will seriously affect the function of human immune system.
Every year, 65438+February 5th is the World Intensive Immunization Day. For some pathogenic factors that are difficult to prevent, health can only be guaranteed if you have a strong immune system and the ability to overcome diseases.
1) How can I enhance my immunity?
1. Take part in aerobic exercise regularly, such as cycling, brisk walking, mountain climbing, swimming, etc. , enhance your immunity.
2. Open the window frequently, breathe more air, develop a good habit of washing hands frequently and touching your face less, reduce the time that the virus stays on your hands and avoid infection.
Drink more water and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables.
4. vitamin c supplementation in time can enhance the body's immunity and resist the invasion of colds.
This paper introduces a "quick war" against respiratory diseases: taking 1000 mg of high-content vitamin C every day, such as Lidisheng vitamin C effervescent tablets on the market, can help to resist the attack of colds. Experiments show that this can improve the antibody level and leukocyte activity, enhance the body's immunity, prevent respiratory diseases such as colds, and relieve cold symptoms.
2) Simple and practical methods to enhance immunity:
1. With sleep
Sleep is closely related to human immunity. Famous immunologists found through the "self-sleep" experiment that a good sleep can significantly increase the number of two kinds of lymphocytes in the body. Research by medical experts shows that during sleep, the human body will produce a sleep factor called muramic acid, which will increase the number of white blood cells, activate macrophages, and enhance the detoxification function of the liver, thus eliminating invading bacteria and viruses.
Remain optimistic
Optimism can keep the human body in the best condition, especially in today's society, people are under great pressure, and great psychological pressure will lead to the increase of hormone components that inhibit the human immune system, so it is easy to catch a cold or suffer from other diseases.
Restrict drinking
Don't drink more than 100 ml of low-alcohol liquor, 250 ml of yellow wine and 1 bottle of beer every day, because alcohol will have a negative impact on every part of the human body. Even if drinking wine can lower cholesterol, it should be limited to one glass a day. Excessive drinking will do great harm to blood, heart and other organs.
Take part in sports
Three studies conducted by experts pointed out that if you exercise for 30-45 minutes a day, 5 days a week for 12 weeks, the number of immune cells will increase and the resistance will increase relatively. Exercise as long as your heart beats faster. Walking after meals is very suitable.
Vitamin supplement
Take proper vitamins and minerals every day. Experts point out that the quantity and vitality of human body's weapons against foreign invasion, including interferon and various immune cells, are all related to vitamins and minerals.
6. Improve the ecological environment in the body
The research and application of microecological agents to enhance immunity have a long history. Studies have shown that the beneficial flora represented by intestinal Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus has broad-spectrum immunogenicity, which can stimulate the division and reproduction of lymphocytes responsible for human immunity, and at the same time mobilize the nonspecific immune system to "eat" various pathogenic foreign microorganisms including viruses, bacteria and chlamydia, produce various antibodies, and enhance human immunity. For healthy people, it is advisable to "diet" and eat more lactic acid bacteria drinks; Healthy marginal people can use microecological agents to adjust the microecological balance in the body.
3) Health food for enhancing immunity:
1. Ganoderma lucidum: Ganoderma lucidum can enhance human immunity. This is because Ganoderma lucidum contains polysaccharide with anticancer effect, and in addition, it is rich in germanium. Germanium can accelerate the body's metabolism, delay cell aging, and exert its anti-cancer effect by inducing human body to produce interferon.
2. Fresh radish: Because it is rich in interferon inducer, it has immune function.
3. Ginseng Royal Jelly: It can enhance human immunity and endocrine regulation, and contains bee lactic acid with anticancer effect.
4. Mushrooms, Hericium erinaceus, Volvariella volvacea, Auricularia auricula, Tremella fuciformis, Cheyang, Lily, etc. Both of them have obvious effects of enhancing immunity.
5. Lentinus edodes: Lentinus edodes contains lentinan, which can enhance human immunity.

Food supplement and medicated diet therapy for weak body
Traditional Chinese medicine refers to physical weakness as physical weakness, chronic weakness as deficiency syndrome, and divides weakness into four types: qi deficiency, blood deficiency, yin deficiency and yang deficiency.
