This is a great question .The kids are only back to school 2 weeks and the coughs and sniffles are appearing. So it’s no harm to try to boost their immune system to help them avoid the nasty bugs going around.😷🦠🤒
Here are a few simple tips:
✅ Eat a healthy diet
The best way to boost your immune system is to have a good healthy diet. Make sure your kids are having a well balanced diet with plenty of fruit and vegetables included too.
✅Take a good multivitamin
Life can be very busy at this time of year and it’s not always easy to ensure that your kids are getting all the essential nutrients from their diet alone . Especially if you have fussy eaters . A good multi-vitamin can help to provide a good blend of vitamins and minerals to support your child’s health and immunity.
✅ Vitamin C , Vitamin D and Zinc supplement.
Vitamin C is an antioxidant that helps protect cells, and maintain normal function of blood vessels, bones, and cartilage whilst also supporting the immune system.
Vitamin D contributes to a healthy immune system and also regulates the normal absorption of calcium and phosphorus.
Zinc is essential for immune function and cell division, whilst also helping to support cognitive function and maintain healthy vision.
✅ Probiotics
A significant proportion of the immune system resides in the gut. Probiotics play an important role in maintaining a healthy gut environment. A balanced gut microbiome helps support immune function so a probiotic can help with this .
✅Exercise Regularly
Regular exercise and fresh air will help boost the immune system. So try to encourage them to get off the devices and out for a small bit of fresh air and some movement .
✅ Getting enough sleep.
The best way to help support your child’s immunity is to ensure they are getting adequate sleep. This is perhaps the most important one . The body repairs and restores itself during deep sleep and this then improves our ability to fight off infections . I know it’s easier said than done but try to get the kids into a good routine of going to bed early so they get the right amount of sleep.
