Low immune system is generally a result of several bad habits in people.
During the season of colds and flu, some people manage to pass totally untouched by the disease but most of the rest don’t.
Because of the low immune system, this may last even throughout the whole winter period.
To be able to avoid low immune system, you should firstly know what are its causes and how to deal with them in first place.
Causes of low immune system:
Sugar addiction
The sugar intake in the body is not affecting only your weight. The results of the study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, showed that the consumption of 100g of chocolate in the next five hours, significantly reduces the ability of white blood cells to kill bacteria.
Decreased water intake
There is a good reasons why during colds doctors recommend drinking more fluids. Your body needs plenty of water to expel toxins from the body.
The point when your body reaches the needed quantities of water is indicated by a slightly light yellow color of your urine.
Extra weight
When it comes to health, the excess weight is particularly harmful to the heart, brain and other organs. It is also harmful for immunity in overall.
Excessive weight can cause hormonal imbalances and inflammation in the body that reduce the ability of the immune system to defend against infection.
Dry nasal cavity
Nasal discharge is a defense mechanism of the body that combats the flu and colds. Secretions in the nasal cavity reduce the viruses and prevents them from entering the body.
If nasal passages are dry, then bacteria and viruses can more easily penetrate the respiratory system.
Chronic Stress
The stress is one of the biggest enemies of the immune system. According to a report made by the American Psychological Association, long exposure to stress weakens the immune system.
In fact, if you are exposed to more stress during cold, the symptoms may worsen. These people will need more time to fully heal.
Common colds
You feel like you are always cold? It is a sign that the immune system is not working as it should. During a cold season an adult can get ill up to three times with lasting of 3-4 days.
If you are more frequently ill, it means that your immune system is significantly reduced.Try to rest longer, get some better sleep, do regular exercises and consume more fruits and vegetables.
