New coverage presented by the Seventh Day TV, about some foods that may weaken the immune system and unfortunately they are among the foods that many people prefer, and on top of these foods that may weaken the immune system, sugar, because eating sugar in large quantities slows down the work of white blood cells that It fights bacteria and viruses, which weakens the function of the immune system.
Also processed foods, as processed food contains a high percentage of sodium and unhealthy fats and also contains artificial preservatives that lead to chronic inflammation that weakens the immune system.
Fried foods are also considered foods that can affect immune function, but when consumed in excess. Excessive consumption of fried foods leads to oxidative stress and chronic inflammation.
Among the foods that you should eat less because they negatively affect the immune system are foods that contain hydrogenated fats, such as fast food and baked goods that contain a high percentage of hydrogenated fats, which weaken the immune system.
Also, foods high in sodium can increase blood pressure, which weakens the immune system.
Refined grains are also one of the foods that you should avoid as well, because they weaken the immune system.. because they are low in nutritional values and fiber, which leads to an imbalance in the intestinal microbes, which leads to a weak immune system.
Excessive caffeine intake also leads to a weak immune system, because the high level of caffeine in the body negatively affects sleep patterns, which affects the immune system.
And to strengthen your immune system.. you should avoid smoking and follow a balanced diet rich in nutrients that enhance the functioning of the immune system, and eat an adequate amount of vegetables, fruits, minerals, healthy fats, and foods rich in antioxidants.
Also get enough water.. and get enough sleep.. for 7 to 8 hours
Finally, avoid stress and psychological stress.
