Can Supplements Fight Coronavirus?
Well, NO supplement will cure or prevent disease, including COVID-19, but some may improve immune response. I will share with you with 10 Best Supplements to Boost your immune system right now.
Hi everyone, I am Angel, I am a Nutrition Expert, a Health & Nutrition Life Coach and also the co-founder of Pretty Easy.
Here are 10 supplements that are known for their immune-boosting potential.
#1 Vitamin D –it is a fat soluble nutrient
Many people are deficient in this important vitamin, which may negatively affect immune function. In fact, low vitamin D levels are associated with an increased risk of upper respiratory tract infections, including influenza and allergic asthma.
#2 Zinc
#3 Vitamin C
#4 Elderberry
#5 Medicinal mushrooms – Cordyceps, lion’s mane, maitake, shitake, reishi, and turkey tail are all types that have been shown to benefit immune health
#6 Astragalus – huáng qí is an herb commonly used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)
#7 Selenium
#8 Garlic
#9 Licorice
#10 B vitamins, including B12 and B6
All the supplements mentioned may offer immune boosting properties, however, although these supplements may offer a small benefit for immune health, they should not and cannot be used as a replacement for a healthy lifestyle.
Keeping your immune system healthy all year round is key to preventing infection and disease. Making healthy lifestyle choices by consuming nutritious foods and getting enough sleep and exercise are the most important ways to bolster your immune system.
Maintaining a balanced diet, getting enough sleep, engaging in regular physical activity, are some of the most important ways to help keep your immune system healthy and reduce your chances of infection and disease.
Remember to wash your hands regularly, practice safe distancing, stand at least 1m apart.
