Immunity is your body’s natural defense system that protects it against infections & illness. The importance of immunity has been brought to the forefront during the Covid-19 pandemic, making people realize how important it is to take care of themselves. Our routines, habits, food & lifestyle impact our immunity, and there are certain things we can do on an everyday basis that strengthen our immune system. Some of these strategies have been discussed below.
Adequate Nutrition
Keeping yourself nourished with a well-balanced diet that consists of Vitamins, Minerals, Proteins, Fats & Carbohydrates is essential to maintain your immunity. A major part of your immune system is in your gastrointestinal tract, hence it’s important to keep it healthy. Avoid processed, greasy, and junk foods that are low in nutritive value & high in calories. Instead, focus on eating healthy fresh & seasonal fruits and vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and seeds that are the best immunity booster food.
Restful Sleep
Sleeping 8-9 hours a night is very important to rejuvenate & replenish your body. Your body is better equipped to fight off pathogens, contaminants, and infections when it is recharged & fresh, so make sure you’re not skipping quality sleep.
Hydration
Drinking water, fluids, and eating fruits & vegetables with high water content hydrate your body and flush out toxins & contaminants. You can also have immunity booster drinks.
Exercise Regularly
Regular exercise is important for cardiovascular health, hormonal balance, as well as to uplift your mood due to the release of happy hormones. Exercise improves blood circulation which helps white blood cells travel & identify any contaminants to fight them off. Running, yoga, dancing, & walking are all exercises that you can start doing for a healthy immune system.
Get Some Sunshine
Spending time in the sunshine is important to improve your mood & get Vitamin D, which helps boost your health. Make sure you are wearing adequate sunscreen to prevent sunburn.
Quit Smoking
Smoking has a detrimental effect on your body, including your immune system. Nicotine suppresses your immune system, hence quitting smoking is a good way to allow your body to strengthen immunity.
Avoid Alcohol
Alcohol in excess has a dehydrating effect on the body, which can affect immunity, hence avoid binge-drinking & drinks that have a very high alcohol concentration.
Manage your Stress Levels
Stress has a detrimental impact on your immunity, hence try to indulge in stress-busting activities such as meditation, music & therapy.
Add Antioxidant-rich Food to your Diet
Antioxidants fight free radicals in the body, strengthening your immunity. Include antioxidant-containing foods such as berries, spices & herbs to your diet to improve your immune health.
Improve Hand-Hygiene
Regularly washing your hands & avoiding touching your face, mouth, and nose can help reduce the chances of getting communicable infections such as Flu that can impact your immune system.
