Human life has been evolving for centuries and we still don’t know how our bodies might act or react in a situation. Pathogens and microbes present in nature have a huge impact on us and are keeping the curious researchers on their toes.But there is one thing that has been key to human life. There is no life without it and it’s been guarding us since the start of human evolution.Fascinating, isn’t it? And you are wondering what it is?Well, we won’t keep you waiting. We are talking about the immune system.Let’s delve a little deeper into our immune system.
In layman’s terms, the immunity system is a complex network of tissues, cells, and proteins that each have a different function but work together to protect our body from unwanted intruders.There are a few parts that make up an immune system: WBC’s, complement system, antibodies, bone marrow, thymus, lymphatic system, and spleen. When a pathogen enters our body, our senses send an SOS to these parts and they start defending our body.The added advantage of our immune system is that they not only fight the intruders but also codes up a better immune system so that when the same microbes enter our body, the updated version of the immune system kills them more quickly and effectively than before.So, how can we boost our immune system externally?
An interesting fact that led to creating a vaccine for boosting our immune system came from Greece. According to a 1998 article in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases, in 430 BC when Athens was suffering from the plague, the Greeks realized that people who survived smallpox did not contract the disease the second time.Vaccines when given to an infected patient, it stimulates the immune system and creates an antibody to kill the microbes without affecting the patient. Furthermore, vaccines also help our immune system get better and kill the microbes better in the future.
Sunlight is a natural source of Vitamin D3 and our body gets it’s vitamin when our skin’s lower layers react with the UVB radiation that emits from the sunlight.But as the sun exposure in the population varies all over the world. So the intake of vitamins is usually done through food or supplements.
India is a melting pot of ancient cultures that helped our ancestors live healthily. In ancient India when English-medicines weren’t available, people used to eat plant-based diets to boost up the immune system.
Superfoods like tulsi (basil), garlic, mint, turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, cumin, black pepper, and other herbs & spices available in the cradle of forests helped them lead a long and healthy life.For modern-day India, homegrown or organic food is the best way to strengthen the immune system and fight diseases. Also citrus fruits like lemon, orange are rich supplements of natural vitamins.
According to studies and research, Vitamin intake can help fight COVID-19.Vitamin C is a rich source of antioxidants and destroys the microbes to naturally boost the immune system. Strawberries, broccoli, mangoes, red peppers, and other fruits and vegetables are a rich source of Vitamin C.Vitamin D, also known as the sunshine vitamin is one the major source for boosting immunity. Cereals, plant-based milk, fish, broccoli, eggs, etc, are a rich source of Vitamin D.Zinc is also a rich source of minerals used to strengthen the WBCs of the immune system. Nuts and seeds are some sources.Vitamin Supplements are also a great source to boost your immune system. But you need to careful while buying a vitamin supplement and consider the factors like:
Zim Laboratories Vitamin supplement, FineVit D3 stands by all the above features and instead of a conventional pill or granules, you get an orally dissolving strip that melts in seconds and has an accurate dosage.
Physical exercise is important to boost metabolism as well as the immune system. It enhances the cardiovascular system, helps in better blood circulation, lowers blood pressure, and also helps in weight control.

There is a reason why scientists across the world urge people to sleep for at least 6-8 hours. It helps the body to recharge and rejuvenate thereby making sure that the immune system works the way it should.Sleep deprivation or insomnia is a major problem and can cause heart problems and obesity. Inadequate sleep or disruptive sleeping habits leads to an early death too.
Maintaining hygiene has always been taught to us and more so now. Basic habits like washing hands, taking baths, brushing teeth, etc, can help us lead a better and healthy life.Of course, a healthy life leads to a good immune system, which means that our body can fight pathogens more effectively.
We don’t have a choice when it comes to leading to a healthy life, we need a good and healthy immune system. Furthermore, once you give the immune system the needed strength they’ll return the favor by helping us fight diseases.With the novel Coronavirus the unpredictable way it is spreading we need to ensure that we are ready for the fight both internally and externally.
