six tricks to improve immunity
winter is the season of frequent diseases, especially for people working in office buildings. Due to the difference of indoor and outdoor temperatures and the pollution of winter environment, they are more likely to suffer from various diseases. Here are some simple and practical ways to improve immunity:
First, 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. The research of 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 the invading bacteria and viruses.
Second, maintaining an optimistic attitude can maintain the human body in an optimal state, especially in today's society, people are under great pressure, and great psychological pressure will lead to an increase in hormone components that inhibit the human immune system, so they are vulnerable to colds or other diseases.
Third, limit alcohol consumption. Do not drink more than 1ml of low-alcohol liquor, 25ml 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 cause great damage to organs such as blood and heart.
four, three studies conducted by participating sports experts pointed out that after 3 to 45 minutes of exercise every day, five days a week for 12 weeks, the number of immune cells will increase and the resistance will increase relatively. Exercise as long as the heart beats faster, and walking after dinner is very suitable.
V. Supplementing vitamins and minerals properly every day. Experts point out that the number and vitality of the body's weapons against foreign invasion, including interferon and various immune cells, are related to vitamins and minerals.
VI. Improving the ecological environment in vivo The research and use of microecological agents to improve 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, it can mobilize the nonspecific immune system to "eat" various pathogenic foreign microorganisms including viruses, bacteria, chlamydia, etc., and produce a variety of antibodies to improve human immunity. For healthy people, it is advisable to "diet" and eat more lactic acid bacteria drinks; The healthy marginal population can use microecological agents to adjust the microecological balance in the body. Foods that can improve immunity
1. Ganoderma lucidum: Ganoderma lucidum can enhance human immunity, because it contains polysaccharides with anticancer effect, and in addition, it is rich in germanium. Germanium can accelerate the metabolism of the body, delay the aging of cells, and play its anti-cancer role 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 improve the immunity and endocrine regulation ability of the body, and contains bee lactic acid with anti-cancer effect;
4. Mushrooms, Hericium erinaceus, Volvariella volvacea, Auricularia auricula, Tremella fuciformis, Cheyang, Lily, etc. all have obvious effects of enhancing immunity;
5. Lentinus edodes: Lentinus edodes contains lentinan which can enhance human immunity.
2. There are two kinds of colds, the one with a runny nose is generally wind-cold cold, and if not, it is generally wind-heat cold.
The details are as follows:
The onset of wind-cold common cold is acute, with fever, chills, even chills, no sweat, stuffy nose, runny nose, cough, thin and pale sputum, headache, aches all over, loss of appetite, normal urination and defecation, thin and white tongue coating, etc. The main manifestations of wind-heat cold are severe fever, but no obvious chills, stuffy nose, runny nose, heavy cough, or sticky yellow phlegm, headache, thirst and thirst, red throat, dryness and itching, dry stool and yellow urine.
