Calories
If we include low calorie food in our diet, it may lead to inadequate intake of vitamins and minerals in the diet, which reduces immunity. Glycogen obtained from a diet adequate in calories and carbohydrates boosts the immune system. Simple carbohydrates like sugar, jaggery, fruit juices, ghee, oil are good sources of calories.
Inflammation
The body’s process of fighting infections, injuries and toxins is called Inflammation. When certain cells are damaged, your body releases chemicals that trigger a response from your immune system. Omega 3 fatty acids, Vit A, E and C, Zinc are essential to reduce inflammation.
Detoxification
The liver detoxifies the poisons produced by the body. Detox largely focuses on adequate sleep as well as increasing water intake, eating antioxidant-rich foods, reducing sugar, salt intake, etc. through which the body can be detoxified.
Oxidative Stress
Oxidative stress creates an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants present in the body. The use of antioxidants as micronutrients may help protect against increased oxidative stress. Selenium, vitamins A, E and C, lycopene and lutein are good sources of antioxidants. These include milk products, eggs, green leafy vegetables, citrus fruits, almonds, peanuts, etc.
vitamins
Vitamin D, B6 and Zinc play an important role in maintaining immunity in the body. Vitamin D helps your body maintain calcium and phosphorus blood levels. Due to this, one gets relief from respiratory diseases also. Zinc has been found to help produce and activate T-cells (T-lymphocytes).
