How to improve children's immunity?

Every parent hopes that their child is stronger and has better physical fitness than other children. This requires improving children's immunity. Improving children's immunity is what parents should do during their children's childhood, and it is also an issue that parents have always been concerned about. So how can we effectively improve children’s immunity? Well, next, let me give you a detailed introduction on how to do it.

First, drink more boiled water.

Water is the source of life and no one can live without water, so parents should let their children drink more water to ensure that the mucous membranes are continuously moistened so that they can better resist bacteria. Parents whose children do not like to drink boiled water should make their children understand the importance of drinking water and cultivate the good habit of drinking water from an early age. Parents should let their children carry a water bottle with them whether they are at home or going out so that they can replenish water in time.

The second is to keep it clean.

Nowadays, parents pay more attention to their children's hygiene and educate their children to be clean and hygienic from an early age. Parents should pay attention to using antibacterial cleaning products when washing their children's clothes and disinfect their children's clothes frequently.

But there is no need to keep it extremely clean. Keeping children in a room without bacteria will prevent them from producing antibodies without contact with bacteria, and their resistance will be very weak. So generally just keep it clean and tidy. Educate your children to develop basic hygiene habits and wash their hands before and after meals, so as to prevent some common diseases.

The third is adequate sleep.

Sleep problems have always affected the healthy development of children, especially some school-age children. Lack of sleep will reduce the number of T cells in the body, which will reduce the ability to fight viruses and bacteria, making them more susceptible to illness. Therefore, children should ensure about nine hours of sleep a day to improve their immunity.

Fourth, let your children eat less sweets.

If children eat too much sugar, they will not be able to finish their meals. Over a long period of time, the child's nutritional intake will decrease, and excessive sugar intake will harm the child's tooth development, interfere with the immune function of white blood cells, and even cause diabetes in children, so don't feed your children too much high-sugar food.

What should I do when my child has poor resistance? What are some ways to improve children’s resistance? Here are a few methods summarized for you.

1. Do not use antibiotics at will.

When the infection is not very serious, try not to use antibiotics, but rely on your own resistance to exercise the immune system. In this way, when you encounter the same "enemy" next time, the trained immune cells will produce targeted immunity to protect the body's safety.

2. It doesn’t need to be too clean to form immune memory.

The immune system can form memories of infectious sources so that it can quickly eliminate them if it encounters them again. If your home is too clean, your child will not have the opportunity to produce antibodies through infection, and their resistance will be weakened, which may lead to allergies and immune disorders. Normally, just use ordinary soap and water to achieve the purpose of cleaning. Do not use disinfectant every day.

Finally, the editor would like to add that regular living habits can make the biological clock run rhythmically. Parents are patient enough with their children to help them find their own routine in life. Growing children need enough sleep every day. If your child doesn't get enough sleep at night, let him take a nap during the day. Taking your baby to a park with fresh air more often on weekends will be beneficial to his health.
