Secret to Strengthen Immunity
- To strengthen immunity, it is very important to have the correct level of Vitamin D in the body.
- Vitamin D is both a vitamin and a hormone. But do you know that Vitamin D needs magnesium to function properly in the body?
- If there is less magnesium in your body, then even if the level of Vitamin D is correct, its effect will not be visible in the body.
- To boost immunity, it is very important to have an adequate intake of both Vitamin D and Magnesium.
- To improve the level of Vitamin D in the body, sit in sunlight for 10-15 minutes in the morning.
- Do this between 8-10 in the morning.
- You can also take Vitamin D supplements on the advice of experts.
- Eat a diet rich in magnesium.
- Start the day with 5 soaked almonds. These contain magnesium in abundance, which activates vitamin D.
- Take chia seeds water with this. It also contains magnesium in abundance, which helps in the production and function of immune cells.
- Apart from this, include green leafy vegetables like spinach, beans, bananas, nuts, seeds and whole grains in the diet.
