Dr. Liu Aihua
To strengthen the immune system, first ensure good sleep. Research shows that sufficient sleep can activate the immune system and support the effective functioning of immune cells, thereby enhancing your resistance. Second, exercise regularly, as physical activity reduces stress, increases energy levels, and boosts immune function. Additionally, pay attention to dietary hygiene—avoid fried, high-calorie, and high-starch foods, and consume more fresh vegetables and fruits to obtain adequate vitamins and calcium, which help strengthen the immune system. Finally, stay up to date with vaccinations and take anti-infective medications when necessary, as these measures help maintain overall health and enhance the power of the immune system.
