Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Liu Aihua
1. Maintain a regular daily routine and ensure sufficient sleep every day. Adequate sleep helps enhance immunity and the body's ability to resist viruses.
2. Eat more foods rich in antioxidants, such as vegetables and fruits, which help the body effectively combat free radicals and support overall health.
3. Increase physical activity. Regular aerobic exercises, such as jogging, brisk walking, and swimming, can effectively strengthen the immune system, improve stress resistance, and boost antiviral capacity.
4. Reduce smoking and alcohol consumption. Any form of smoking or excessive drinking suppresses immune function and is harmful to health.
5. Consume more vitamin-rich foods, such as red meat, lean meat, legumes, and sea fish, which are high in vitamins A, B2, C, and D, helping to strengthen immunity.
6. Take adequate amounts of vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium, and iron, which can enhance immune system function and improve the body's resistance to diseases.
