You notice this in your intestines, for example, if your digestion is not going well or if you suffer from food intolerance.
You can also suffer from fatigue, painful joints, muscle weakness, poor skin, fungal infections such as Candida, and allergies.
You also often see that the gums become inflamed and you quickly get a mouth sore.
Allow intestinal flora to flourish for a strong immune system
The intestines are the basis for your immune system. 80% is arranged here. A disturbed intestinal flora weakens the immune system. Which diet influences your immune system?
First of all, try to eat as much as possible organic. Pesticides, for example, have a negative effect on the immune system.
Avoid white sugar! Sugar destroys the immune system and can put it out of action for no less than 5 hours. It depletes your mineral and vitamin supply. A less unhealthy choice is palm sugar, for example.
Eat fermented products. Fermented food is more easily absorbed into our body.
It is also advisable to eat gluten-free if possible and to avoid dairy products. The mucous membrane of the intestinal wall is affected by this.
You can eat your stomach full of fruit and vegetables. Preferably raw instead of cooked. Salads and green smoothies are very suitable for this. A number of products are resistance-promoting.
Below a must-eat list:
Fruit, such as coconut (juice), forest fruits (eg blueberries and raspberries), goji berries, pumpkin seeds and avocado
Vegetables such as kale, onions and ginger
Shiitake (mushroom)
Fish (for example, wild salmon and oysters)
Eggs
Raw nuts such as pecans
Oats (oatmeal for example)
Herbs can also contribute to support the resistance. Then consider the following herbs:
Echinaforce (for example, hot drink)
Cat's claw
Propolis (bee balm)
Astragalus (a kind of pod)
Thyme
Cinnamon
Turmeric
Clove
Chili Peppers
Italian spices
Garlic
Food supplements and probiotics are there to support the intestines and thus strengthen your resistance . The species below are particularly good for the immune system:
Acerola (Indian cherry)
Reishi (mushroom)
Minerals such as Selenium, Manganese, Copper and Zinc
Spirulina and Chinese chlorella (microalgae)
Elderberries
Vitamin C, D, A, B6, B11 (folic acid), B12 and B17 (apricot kernel) complex
Omega-3 fatty acids (polyunsaturated fatty acids)
Occiococium (homeopathic remedy)
Q10 (enzyme)
Probiotics such as Acidophilus and Kefir. You can easily make Kefir yourself at home. It works better than, for example, Yakult. Probiotics are very good to rebuild the resistance during and after an antibiotic cure.
EBT complex
Drinking enough is perhaps just as important. Your immune system needs water to function.
Therefore, drink (mineral) water daily. Also place a glass of water next to your bed, so that you can also be supplied with moisture at night.
For optimum results, mix lemon juice into the water. Or drink it with tea. Green tea or rose hip tea is also good for the PH value in your body.
