What can you eat to influence immune cell repair?

This informative session will focus on how diet can affect the immune system. Food plays an important role in our health, wellbeing and immune system. It is often overlooked. We will discuss the role of food in immune cell repairs, offer practical advice on how to get started, give examples of healthy foods and provide additional suggestions on how diet can enhance immune cell healing.

What Diet Has to Do with Immune Cell Regeneration

The immune system protects our bodies from harmful pathogens such as bacteria, viruses and foreign invaders. Immune cells are at the heart of this system, and they need to perform well in order to do so. Dietary balance provides these cells with the nutrients they need for optimal repair and functioning. A 2018 Journal of Immunology Research study found that nutrient deficiency can affect immune cell function. This highlights the importance of diet.

What to Know Before You Start

It's important to know that the key to boosting immune cell regeneration is a varied and balanced diet. A diet that is based on one type of food, or even nutrient can lead to nutritional imbalances. The British Journal of Nutrition published a review that highlights the importance of eating a varied diet to support a healthy immune system.

Conclusion

Diet has an impact on immune cell repair. A varied, balanced diet, rich in vegetables, fruits, proteins and healthy fats, can help provide nutrients necessary for optimal immunity and cell repair. This, along with other lifestyle choices that promote a healthy immune system can be a powerful tool. Every step you take towards better nutrition will lead to better health.
