Prioritise a nutritious diet Eating a healthy, balanced diet providing a broad range of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients should be the cornerstone of your immune health plan.
Why? Because the nutritional composition of your diet interacts with your immune system in a vast number of ways, including: ¹
yourself
Affecting the health of your skin and mucous membranes (which are your body’s first line of defence against infection)
•
Nourish
Influencing the balance of the microflora in your gut (which play a key role in immune function)
•
Playing a role in the healthy functioning of specific types of immune cells that work to fight off infectious organisms like bacteria and viruses
