Colds and parasites are just a godsend for businessmen from medicine. There are hundreds of drugs on the market. At the same time, most mothers will agree that modern children get sick more often than twenty years ago. Weakened immunity is a popular diagnosis that explains half of the ailments.
Immunity reactions are carried out by specialized cells (lymphocytes, macrophages) and substances (immunoglobulins). The activity of any cells in the body is determined by the presence of nutrients, the concentration of toxins, and the level of metabolism. These indicators, in turn, are associated with the function of the liver, kidneys, gastrointestinal tract, enzyme activity. Vitamins are essential companions of enzymes.
Some sources note that sunlight can activate macrophages. These cells are able to independently move in the bloodstream, recognizing and eating pathogenic microorganisms. After short-term illumination of a portion of blood in a test tube, the number of motile cells increased tenfold. Eastern medicine emphasizes areas on the body that are capable of "absorbing" solar energy. These are the palms, the folds of the elbows, the solar plexus and the lower back. Thus, you need to walk and sunbathe.
Delicious food also comes to the rescue. Of course, the diet should contain a lot of vitamins. Greens, fruits, vegetables, fresh meat and fish. Beef liver, onions, and bell peppers retain nearly 90 percent of their vitamin C if quickly fried and salted just before serving. Red fish does not require long frying, it is rich in vitamins A and E, polyunsaturated fats. Red meat, despite years of criticism, provides a whole host of valuable nutrients. First of all, iron, which is necessary for blood formation, and "good" cholesterol, "which is the basis for half of human hormones.
Oddly enough, hot drinks are also included in the arsenal. Real high-quality coffee and tea invigorate. Red wine helps blood renewal. Strong alcoholic drinks in small doses stimulate the immune system "by contradiction". Ethanol is toxic, and the body produces additional immunoglobulins and white blood cells to fight it.
Honey, even in small amounts, is beneficial. Wild berries can simply be mixed with honey and nuts, or mousse made. When whipped, it is saturated with oxygen. The higher the acidity of the internal environment of the body, the less chance of pathogenic bacteria.
Bitter chocolate gives strength and simply improves mood. They say that five minutes of laughter replaces a glass of sour cream. Probably a few minutes of pleasure from a good dessert replaces a day on vacation. Several large pears can be cut into 8 slices each, peeled and fried in butter, sprinkling with powdered sugar. After 7-10 minutes, transfer to a plate, sprinkle with grated nuts and pour over melted chocolate.
