Dear MEL Topic Readers,
How important is diet for a healthy immune
system?
How can you improve your immune system, which
does a remarkable job of defending you against disease-causing microorganisms? To function the immune system well, it requires balance and harmony both physically
and mentally (like positive thinking in Vol.2985), and healthy and balanced nutrition
are essential. Unfortunately, there is no superfood that provides all
nutrients to keep your immune system functioning. You want to try to eat a
variety of vegetables and fruits to obtain all the nutrients your immune system
needs. For example, the colors of vegetables and fruits show what nutrients are
contained. Also, you need proper type and amount of bacteria in your gut to keep
your immune system working well. In addition to fruits and vegetables, you want
to have wholegrain foods such as brown bread, rice and pasta, and beans.
Fermented foods also increase and activate microbes, such as yogurt, good
cheese, not the highly processed ones, and fermented soybeans like natto.
Yes, it seems that you need to do a lot to
live a healthy life.
Enjoy reading the article and plan your next grocery
shopping for a healthier life!
