If you are looking for ways to improve your immune system, here are 4 keys we must take now. However, these methods do not cure the corona virus, but build an immune system that is considered one of the best ways to keep yourself healthy overall.

1. Try to reduce stress

It is important to take time to calm the system when under stress, the body gets a red-code response, decreases the activation of systems that the body considers unimportant to fight danger, including the immune response.

"Over time, increasing stress increases your body's cortisol production, which can decrease your body's white cell count. It's one of your body's mechanisms to fight infection." said Dr. Vyas.

2. Consumption of vitamin C

This vitamin has a beneficial effect on the immune system, research shows, by increasing immune cell function. Foods high in vitamin C include (in order of the highest) namely, red peppers, oranges, kiwifruit, green pepper, broccoli (higher when cooked), strawberries, Brussels sprouts, grapefruit, tomatoes, and cantaloupe.

3. Frequent exercise

Here are good reasons to stay away from the table and move the body a little. Research shows that moderate physical activity can reduce infection rates for viruses (including flu and pneumonia) and bacterial diseases (although more research is needed in this area).

There is also increasing evidence that regular exercise has an anti-inflammatory effect on the body (possibly because it can cause weight loss), as well as improving immune function. "Exercise helps you maintain a healthy weight, helps produce‘ feel good chemicals and helps you sleep well, "said Dr. Vyas.

4. Get enough sleep

When not getting enough sleep, it tends to become sick after being exposed to the virus. According to research results. This is because the immune system works hard when sleeping for a while, this system releases the protein you need to fight infection or inflammation.

If you lack sleep the amount of production of this protein will decrease. So how much sleep does the average adult need? 7 to 8 hours, experts say. And younger people need more: teens need around 9 to 10 hours, and children in primary school need 10 more hours, ideally.
