Ways to enhance children's immunity

Because children's organs are not yet fully developed, their resistance is generally weaker than that of adults. It is every mother's wish for their children to grow up healthily, so mothers should pay special attention to their children's lives and always pay attention to their children's changes. However, it is best to enhance children's resistance in normal times. Let's see how to do it.

1. Drink more water. To ensure health, children should be made to understand the importance of drinking water as much as possible. Let your children carry water bottles when they go to school or go out, keep a bottle of water in the car at all times, and require everyone to drink water at dinner. Make drinking water a good habit, and you will also find another benefit of water: even if it is accidentally spilled, it will not stain your clothes.

2. Don’t keep your home too clean. The immune system can form immune memory against infectious agents, so if you encounter them again, you can quickly eliminate them. 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 autoimmune disorders.

3. Teach your children to wash their hands, especially after going to the toilet, to prevent diseases such as diarrhea or urinary tract infections.

4. Get enough sleep. Poor sleep will reduce the number of T cells in the body that are responsible for fighting viruses and tumors, and increase the chance of getting sick. Experts recommend that growing children need 8 to 10 hours of sleep a day. If your child doesn't get enough sleep at night, let him take a nap during the day. Talk with your child about the body's ability to heal itself. Dr. White, the leader of the study, pointed out that by contacting other children and being exposed to infectious agents, the child's immune response can be stimulated, his immune system can be strengthened, and the chance of reacting to allergens and causing asthma can be reduced.

5. Reduce sugar intake: A diet high in sugar will interfere with the immune function of white blood cells. Reduce stress. Studies have shown that the more stress you are under, the more likely you are to catch a cold. Teach your children relaxation techniques, arrange activities appropriately, and don't let stress overwhelm your children's immunity.

6. Children who eat more fruits and vegetables are prone to picky eating. Unbalanced nutrition can cause the thinning of the lung and digestive tract mucosa, a decrease in antibodies, and affect the body's defense function. Citrus fruits are rich in vitamin C, which can increase the number of phagocytes; strengthen the activity of natural killer cells; build and maintain mucous membranes and collagen tissues to help wounds heal.

7. Reducing pollution is the key to improving immunity. Ways to prevent pollution: First, open doors and windows regularly to ventilate. At least twice a day, choose time periods with low air pollution such as 9-11 a.m. and 3-5 p.m., and each time should not be less than 45 minutes to ensure air circulation in your child's room.

8. Compared with adults, immunosuppression is common in children. It is important to distinguish the types of immunosuppression. It is incorrect to blindly use immunity-boosting drugs or health products.

After reading the above statements, mothers, do you think that strengthening children's resistance should start from daily little things? Don't let children eat too many hot foods, drink more water, exercise more, let children sweat more, so as to eliminate toxins from the body. Encourage children to eat more vegetables, fruits, kelp, pig blood and other foods with anti-pollution functions. I hope the above suggestions can help you.
