The Immune System – How does the immune system work and what 7 foods build a strong immunity defense.
When germs, such as bacteria or viruses, invade the body, they attack and multiply. This invasion, called an infection, is what causes illness.
God created an entourage of warriors to help you fight infection. And they come from the blood. Blood has been called the river of life, because they transport critical elements from one part of the body to another. These elements also build your defense.
Blood represents life and is the river of life. Life in Jesus is the absence of the penalty of sin because of Jesus’ blood that cleanses us.
For as for the life of all flesh, its blood is identified with its life. Leviticus 17:14
In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace. Ephesians 1:7
Blood contains red blood cells and white blood cells.
Here are 6 food choices to contribute to healthy happy days ahead.
Vitamin D
Immune cells including macrophages (from the white blood cells) contain vitamin D receptors.
To understand receptors imagine a mom-and-pop store owner. they want every parking spot to be filled with happy customers. That is similar to receptors. When they are filled we are happy.
Vitamin D’s role is to reduce inflammation cells. For those with respiratory infections, vitamin D increases anti-microbial immune cells such as neutrophils and natural killer cells.
Selenium
The trace element selenium is crucial for the immune system to function normally. A deficiency results in a weakened immune response and a diminished ability to fight viral infections.
Selenium has a partner with vitamin E and has been known to help prevent against breast cancers.
Probiotics
The intestine is composed of three kinds of defenses that work together: good bacteria, the intestinal wall and the immune system.
Probiotics must resist the stomach acids and be in sufficient quantities in our food and supplements https://thebiblicalnutritionist.com/my-favorites/gut-health-with-amare/
Omega 3
Omega 3 fats are very essential. They work by increasing the activity of the parts of the white blood cells that destroy bacteria.
These fats also help strengthen cell membranes, thereby speeding up healing and strengthening resistance to infection in the body.
Zinc
The mineral zinc helps develop white blood cells, immune cells that fight off foreign bacteria and viruses.
Zinc is found in abundance in foods such as: meats, seeds such as pumpkin, nuts and greens.
Vitamins A, C, and E
A steady and consistent intake of these phytonutrients helps to keep our immune systems working properly. The best diets include 2 fruits per day and 5 cups of vegetables.
