Doctors from CITILAB join the global medical community and remind of simple rules of a healthy lifestyle that will help strengthen the immune system.
Every year on the first day of spring, the world celebrates the Day of Immunity, created at the initiative of the World Organization and Health.
Doctors from CITILAB join the global medical community and remind of simple rules of a healthy lifestyle that will help strengthen the immune system.
1. Do not neglect vaccinations
The World Health Organization this year updated the list of potential threats to humanity and included the refusal of vaccinations. People who refuse vaccinations and do not vaccinate their children take risks and put those around them at risk.
To understand what vaccinations children need, and how often adults need to be revaccinated, just look at the National Calendar of Preventive Vaccinations, created by specialists of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation.
Before vaccinations, a number of tests can be performed at CITILAB to clarify the presence of antibodies to infections. You can read more about this here .
2. Give up smoking and alcohol
Nicotine and tar in smoke, as well as alcohol, weaken the immune system. Cellular immunity decreases, the number of cells responsible for the formation of platelets decreases, the work of liver cells associated with immunity is damaged.
3. Be active
In order to maintain the work of all body systems, including the immune system, it is enough to devote only 75 minutes a week to physical activity – this is the WHO recommendation.
Outdoor hiking, cycling, Nordic walking are great for strengthening the immune system.
4. Eat right
The intake of a sufficient amount of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals is the key to the well-coordinated work of the body. For example, in the new recommendations of the 2019 Canadian Nutritional Guidelines, experts advise paying more attention to when and how we eat, rather than specific types of foods.
Eat in a pleasant company, make time for your meal, take your time, focus on fresh vegetables and berries, grains, vegetable and high-quality animal protein; Make water the drink of choice.
5. Check-up
Regular annual check-ups will help you monitor your health and maintain your usual quality of life. Especially for this, CITILAB doctors have developed the “Annual Minimum” profile ( service code 99-00-838 ). It includes 12 important indicators necessary for assessing the work of internal organs, identifying the risk of diabetes mellitus, atherosclerosis, inflammation, and disorders in the thyroid gland.
THERE ARE CONTRAINDICATIONS. SPECIALIST CONSULTATION REQUIRED.
Be healthy!
