Winter time and human immunity
- Centrum klinické imunologie, Praha
Winter time is a period of increased morbidity and, thus, of increased interest in immune-boosting products. A number of medications,
dietary supplements and nontraditional therapies are available that can favorably affect the immune system. In addition to a healthy
lifestyle with sufficient rest and a balanced diet, enough antioxidants, probiotics and natural substances are recommended. In case
medications are needed, bacterial lysates or products for systemic enzyme therapy may have beneficial effects. A glass of a carefully
chosen wine of good quality may also be of interest.
Keywords: antioxidants, immunodeficiencies, immune modulators, wine therapy, probiotics, systemic enzyme therapy, thymus factors
