Immune System Boosters
The function of the human immune system is to defend the body against invaders. Microbes (germs or microorganisms), cancer cells, and transplanted tissues or organs are all interpreted by a healthy immune system as non-self against which the body must be defended. Although the immune system is extremely complex, its basic strategy is simple: to recognize the enemy, mobilize forces, and attack.
Top Nine Ways to Maintain or Boost Immune System
1. Deep Sleep is one of the most important ways to boost the immune system. Chronic insomnia can lead to immune system deficiency or poor immune response.
2. Moderate exercise, at least 3 times a week. Excessive and prolonged physical activity temporarily reduces the function of the immune system. Avoid excessive sun exposure.
3. Reduce stress any way you know how. Stress releases the hormone cortisol which wreaks havoc with the immune system. Stress of any kind -- emotional, physical, psychological -- quickly damages the immune system.
4. Eat more fruits and vegetables. They have flavonoids that have anti-bacterial and anti-viral activity. Avoid excessive sugar intake. Consume more garlic, onions, and culinary herbs.
5. Ingest healthy probiotic bacteria. These friendly gut bacteria may boost the immune system.
6. Drink more tea (up to mid afternoon) - Drinking tea appears to boost the immune system. Non-tea drinkers who downed two to four small cups of black tea per day for two weeks appeared to be better able to fight off bacterial infections. As an explanation for tea's benefits, experiments in the lab revealed that an ingredient found in black, green, oolong and pekoe teas boosted the ability of immune system cells to attack a bacterial invader. The experiments used ethylamine, which is produced when the tea ingredient L-theanine is broken down in the liver.
7. Get a massage. Massage therapy reduces cortisol levels.
8. Do yoga, or relaxed breathing and stretching, at least once or twice a week; and
9. Dont forget to say your salah 5 times a day, reading qur'an every day, always remember Allah and asking any favor from Him...
