Mentre le temperature scendono e la stagione influenzale perdura, assicurati di rimanere in salute mantenendo una dieta nutriente. Impara preziosi consigli da un esperto di nutrizione per rafforzare il sistema immunitario e respingere raffreddore e influenza quest'inverno.<\/p>\n

Secondo Bonnie Taub-Dix, una persona registrata dietista<\/a> e nutrizionista di Long Island, l'alimentazione sana dovrebbe essere al centro dell'attenzione durante tutto l'anno. Tuttavia, \u00e8 opportuno prestare particolare attenzione in inverno, quando il raffreddore, l\u2019influenza e altri virus sono pi\u00f9 diffusi.<\/p>\n

Se ti stai chiedendo quali alimenti inserire nella tua routine quotidiana, Taub-Dix consiglia di includere alimenti che rinforzano il sistema immunitario, quelli ricchi di vitamina C, acidi grassi omega-3 e proteine magre.<\/p>\n

\u201cGli alimenti che aiutano a sostenere un sistema immunitario sano sono quelli che hanno propriet\u00e0 antibatteriche come l\u2019aglio e lo zenzero, quelli che sono ricchi di vitamine e minerali come un\u2019abbondanza di frutta e verdura colorata con un\u2019enfasi su quelli ad alto contenuto di vitamina C come gli agrumi. I frutti di mare forniscono acidi grassi omega-3, importanti per la salute immunitaria e un\u2019importante fonte di proteine magre. Le proteine sono fondamentali per mantenere forte il sistema immunitario\u201d, ha detto Taub-Dix Quotidiano medico<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cPer sostenere il sistema immunitario \u00e8 particolarmente importante puntare su alimenti che apportano vitamina C (agrumi e succhi, broccoli, patate al forno, peperoni, pomodori, fragole), vitamina A (patate dolci, carote, verdure a foglia verde), vitamina E (mandorle), acidi grassi omega-3 (pesce grasso) e aglio, zenzero, curcuma. Aggiungerei anche un po' di yogurt per aiutare a sostenere la salute dell'intestino", ha spiegato.<\/p>\n

Considera l'idea di aggiungere alla tua dieta una zuppa calda ricca di verdure ricche di antiossidanti e proteine magre. Inoltre, incorpora tisane con propriet\u00e0 di supporto immunitario come sambuco, echinacea, curcuma, menta piperita e camomilla.<\/p>\n

Ma non aspettare di ammalarti per includere cibi sani o integratori nella dieta, ha detto Taub-Dix. Avere l'abitudine di assumere questi elementi regolarmente pu\u00f2 aiutarti a sviluppare forza e immunit\u00e0 durante tutto l'anno.<\/p>\n

Mentre alcuni alimenti possono aiutare a combattere le infezioni rafforzando l\u2019immunit\u00e0 del corpo, altri, come l\u2019alcol e quelli ricchi di zucchero, hanno il potenziale di indebolire il sistema immunitario.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnche se non ci sono alimenti che potrebbero farti prendere un raffreddore o un\u2019influenza, alcuni alimenti non ti aiuteranno a rimanere forte e a sostenere la tua salute. Se dovessi scegliere degli alimenti, sceglierei quelli ricchi di zuccheri e poveri di nutrienti preziosi. L\u2019alcol potrebbe anche deprimere il sistema immunitario, soprattutto se prende il posto di cibi e bevande pi\u00f9 sani. Forse \u00e8 altrettanto importante pensare ad avere abitudini pi\u00f9 sane in generale, come dormire a sufficienza e lavarsi le mani regolarmente\u201d, ha detto Taub-Dix.<\/p>\n

Quando una persona si ammala, riposarsi e dormire a sufficienza \u00e8 altrettanto essenziale quanto le vitamine e gli integratori che supportano l\u2019immunit\u00e0.<\/p>\n

\u201cAl primo segno di mal di gola o di tosse, molte persone corrono a prendere degli integratori. Sebbene la cura del raffreddore richieda pi\u00f9 delle semplici pillole, incluso il consumo di liquidi caldi, il riposo abbondante e una buona notte di sonno, ci sono alcuni integratori che potrebbero aiutare a ridurre la gravit\u00e0 o la durata del raffreddore, come la vitamina C e lo zinco. Alcune persone fanno affidamento sull'echinacea, ma gli studi hanno mostrato risultati contrastanti sulla possibilit\u00e0 di fare affidamento su di essa. Inoltre, l\u2019echinacea potrebbe interferire con alcune condizioni di salute come i disturbi autoimmuni\u201d, ha aggiunto.<\/p>\n
