Come and see if the child has weak immunity! 2 Ways to Improve Your Immunity

The weather in spring is cold and hot, warm and cold at first, and many babies have been ill more than once.

The baby’s immunity is divided into two parts, one part is given by parents and is born, so it is called [innate immunity].

The other part is obtained by the baby’s own acquired [exercise], which is called [acquired immunity].

The above two immune functions are closely linked, and one is indispensable. Without one, great things will happen.

Babies have low immunity and often have these 4 manifestations.

Does the baby often have low immunity when he has a cold and fever? 99% are not.

If the baby has the following manifestations, it will only indicate that he has low immunity:

Always sick, accompanied by growth and development retardation;

After each illness, they cannot improve on their own and need intravenous infusion or hospitalization.

For each bacterial infection, antibiotics for more than 2 months must be used, and the effect is not good.

Every time a child gets sick, he is seriously infected, such as meningitis and septicemia.

Under normal circumstances, children under the age of 6 will catch a cold 6-8 times a year on average. Children who have just entered kindergarten, in winter and spring, some even get sick 1-2 times a month. These situations are very common and are not manifestations of low immunity.

Take some supplements to improve immunity? Nonexistent nonexistent

The advertisement has been promoting that everyone should buy expensive ones to improve their children’s immunity, such as buying foreign bovine colostrum and protein powder. Are these effective?

I regret to tell you that although they are very expensive, they are useless.

Bovine colostrum? It doesn’t work.

Our State Health and Planning Commission stipulated in 2012 that bovine colostrum shall not be added to infant formula foods, nor shall dairy products made from bovine colostrum be used as raw materials. Bovine colostrum does contain nutritional ingredients and has many antibodies, which is the best for calves. But… is the disease suffered by cattle the same as that of human beings? In addition, bovine colostrum obviously needs to be disinfected before it can be drunk by babies. This disinfection will denature all kinds of antibodies in it, making it useless to drink it to calves.

What about protein powder? It doesn’t work.

In fact, protein powder is protein. In modern times, the protein brought by the daily diet supplement of babies is enough. Most children have taken in a lot of protein, but too much supplement is not easy to absorb, adding fat and increasing the burden on children’s kidneys.

What about the burning probiotics? It doesn’t work.

Some studies also suggest that supplementing probiotics may be effective in improving immunity, but the evidence is not very sufficient. We still do not know which strains of probiotics can improve immunity, how much they are used and how long they will take. Judging from the current research, using probiotics to improve immunity is tantamount to [looking for a needle in a haystack], and the effect is somewhat illusory.

Take some medicine to improve immunity? A little naive

Lan Junjing, Pan Fushu, Pidotimod… Parents who often run to hospitals know a lot about these immune drugs.

Lanjun Jing and Pan Fu Shu are dissolves of various bacteria, claiming to stimulate the body to produce antibodies in small doses, but if you think about it carefully, you will know that it is useless. How do bacteria make up? Sugar, protein, fat… Lysates such as Lanjun Jing and Pan Fushu are also these things.

After oral administration, these [small bacteria] have been absorbed by the baby’s intestines and stomach as daily nutrition before they can stimulate the body to produce antibodies. Taking these drugs is equivalent to adding a small meal to the child and has no other effect.

Besides, pidotimod, which is only sold in Italy and China of origin (other European countries and the United States are not willing to use it exclusively for China). Alas, I really don’t want to say that this drug has been ordered by the China Food and Drug Administration to change its instructions a while ago, requiring it to be marked [forbidden under 3 years old]. Therefore, when someone recommends this drug, everyone has dispersed it.

The real way to improve immunity is here.

As mentioned earlier, the baby’s immunity is divided into [congenital immunity] and [acquired immunity]. To enhance immunity, to put it bluntly, is to protect the existing [congenital immunity] and help the child establish [acquired immunity].

Protect [congenital immunity]

First, protect the baby’s skin.

We emphasize to do a good job of moisturizing, shading and sun protection for the baby. This is not because of the love of beauty. Skin is the baby’s first barrier, which can resist pathogens from entering the body and cannot be ignored.

Second, eat regularly and moderately.

Don’t give your baby too much at one time and protect your stomach. Gastric acid can burn the virus entering the digestive tract to death. If your baby’s stomach is stimulated too much early, pathogens entering from the mouth will take advantage of it.

Third, keep the indoor humidity at 50% ~ 60% to protect nasal mucosa.

Like skin, nasal mucosa is also an important barrier for babies. Proper humidity can prevent nasal mucosa from being damaged.

Building Acquired Immunity

First, let the baby properly contact with pathogens

Some families are used to giving their children the confidence to disinfect and disinfect. In fact, family cleaning only needs clean water to wipe the table and mop the floor.

There are a small amount of pathogens in the home, which can stimulate the child’s immune system in a small dose, not reaching the degree of illness, but also producing antibodies.

Often take children out to contact nature, but be careful not to play in crowded places and make temporary wet wipes when going out.

Second, vaccination should be carried out on time.

Vaccines have the antigenicity of pathogens and can stimulate the body to produce corresponding antibodies, but they will not lead to diseases. They are very important methods to improve the baby’s resistance. Both Class I and Class II vaccines are recommended and should be vaccinated on time.

Third, a balanced diet

Immune function wants to be good, First set up the immune system, All kinds of antibodies, complements, etc. are protein components. All kinds of immune organs need to be mature and cannot be without raw materials. Therefore, nutrition is very important, and it is necessary to avoid providing children with a single kind of food. After adding supplementary foods, the baby should eat carbohydrates (rice, flour, etc.), protein (meat, fish), cellulose (vegetables, fruits) and dairy products every day.

Fourth, insist on breast-feeding

It is recommended to breastfeed at least until the age of 1, and then continue to feed if you can continue to eat.

Fifth, exercise properly

Proper exercise can adjust the proportion of protein and fat in the child’s body composition, better build the immune system, and ensure one hour of outdoor exercise every day, which is effective.

Helping children build immunity is a steady process and there is no shortcut.

The so-called way to improve immunity at once is to draw cakes for parents. Please turn around and walk away when you hear it!
