Immune management in autumn, let’s prepare in advance
The National Foundation Day holiday is over and autumn is in full swing. During the changing season, when the daily temperature difference becomes severe, it is easy to feel a decrease in immunity, which causes symptoms such as colds, rhinitis, and extreme fatigue. What are the preparations to catch the falling immunity this fall?
Focus on improving your lifestyle
A weakened immune system can lead to various diseases. First of all, if you have weakened areas or are prone to certain diseases during the changing seasons, you need to take special care during the changing seasons.
If you have symptoms of allergic rhinitis, always keep your neck warm with a scarf, etc., and avoid allergens such as dust and animal hair. Cold drinks can also aggravate rhinitis symptoms, so it’s good to drink warm tea frequently instead of ‘ah’. Among teas, guava leaf and green bean tea are known to be effective in improving symptoms of rhinitis.
Fatigue in the changing seasons can be helped by a good night’s sleep and moderate exercise. When the temperature change becomes large, the metabolism becomes active to adapt to the change of the weather, and the vitamin is consumed quickly. Because of this, fatigue and drowsiness are greatly felt. First of all, it is good to relax the body by doing light jogging and stretching along with a good night’s sleep for at least 7 hours a day.
Vaccination is also required
This year, the flu epidemic is predicted to be particularly serious. The common opinion of the quarantine authorities and the medical community is that active influenza vaccination is necessary because the flu that will be prevalent this year is ‘type A H3N2’, the strongest among flu viruses. In particular, it is necessary to be more careful as the severity can increase when you are simultaneously infected with COVID-19 and the flu. Influenza vaccine is free for children aged 6 months to 13 years, pregnant women, and senior citizens over 65 years old.
The shingles vaccine is also recommended for middle-aged and older adults. Shingles can be caused by a decrease in immunity, and even just rubbing the collar can cause severe pain, neuralgia, or in severe cases, complications such as loss of vision.
Nutritional supplements such as propolis and red ginseng can help
There are a variety of nutritional supplements that help boost immunity, including propolis, red ginseng, and vitamin D. Propolis contains flavonoids, which are powerful antioxidants, which help with antioxidant and oral antibacterial properties. In particular, taking propolis can be helpful during the changing seasons when immunity is low or when inflammation in the mouth occurs frequently. However, in order to be effective in stomatitis, you should choose chewable capsules or spray types that can be touched directly into the oral cavity.
Meanwhile, Anguk Health Green Propolis is one of the representative chew and swallow propolis products. An official from Anguk Health said, “It contains propolis, zinc, and selenium, which help normal immune function, antioxidant, and oral antibacterial function.” Even if there is a feeling of rejection, you can take it comfortably.”
