We must not relax our efforts in epidemic prevention! Key nutrient intake with fermentation upgrades to enhance self-protection

The COVID-19 epidemic has been going on for as long as 4 months. It seems to have eased temporarily recently, but foreign public health experts have bluntly stated that before relevant vaccines and drugs are available on the market, this wave of epidemic may last as long as 2 years. Nutritionists remind people not to relax in the face of experts’ warnings! In addition to continuing to do a good job of external epidemic prevention such as wearing masks, washing hands frequently, and disinfecting; in extraordinary times, we should pay more attention to internal protection, learn to "choose food" correctly, eat the right food, enhance health protection, and regulate physical fitness. Establishing a dual barrier of internal and external protection is the key to effectively resisting external threats!

Don't let your body lose its defenses! Nutritionist: Supplement nutrition from 3 levels to upgrade your health defense line in all directions

Nutritionist Zhao Hanying said that during the extraordinary period of epidemic prevention, balanced nutrition is the first step to a strong body. Once the nutrition is unbalanced, the body will easily lose its defense mechanism, be invaded by foreign enemies, and develop related discomfort symptoms or diseases. Therefore, the only way to enhance your own protection is to eat the right food and supplement the right nutrients.

However, if people want to avoid nutritional imbalance, how should they eat? Nutritionist Zhao Hanying pointed out that in daily diet, we should start from three levels: "taking in basic nutrients, maintaining normal energy metabolism, and enhancing the body's antioxidant capacity." Supplementing the body with key nutrients is the key to laying the foundation for health and maintaining normal energy metabolism, which is the key to successful upgrading.

Level 1 - Intake of basic nutrients: moderate supplementation of high-quality protein to lay a good foundation

Protein is a basic nutrient necessary for building and repairing body tissues. It can help growth and development, repair human tissues, regulate physiological functions, and enhance protection. Therefore, it is important to supplement your daily diet with an appropriate amount of high-quality protein! In addition to a balanced consumption of foods such as beans, fish, eggs, and meat, moderate intake of whey protein and lactoferrin, which are mostly present in breast milk and are not easy for ordinary people to consume, are good choices.

Daily dietary supplements recommended: soybeans, edamame, black beans, tofu, soy milk and other beans/soy products, as well as seafood such as clams, shrimps, fish fillets, and white meat such as chicken and duck and various eggs are all good choices.

Level 2 - Maintain normal energy metabolism: Take B complex and mineral zinc to maintain normal energy metabolism

If you want to improve your defenses, in addition to supplementing high-quality protein that is necessary for building and repairing body tissues, the second most important thing is to take in nutrients that are beneficial to maintaining normal energy metabolism in the body! However, what do you think of when you mention improving metabolism? I believe that everyone will think of vitamin B group first.

Nutritionist Zhao Hanying pointed out that vitamin B1, B2, nicotinic acid, etc. in the B vitamin complex are indeed important nutrients that can improve the body's energy metabolism, maintain skin health and produce antibodies. However, it should be noted that although people can easily supplement B complex through daily diet, it is a water-soluble vitamin and is easily lost. Therefore, in extraordinary times, it is a good way to maintain health by moderately choosing B complex health products containing yeast and taking additional supplements.

In addition to vitamin B complex, nutritionist Zhao Hanying also reminds us that in order to maintain the normal functioning of the human body's metabolism, the intake of trace element zinc cannot be reduced! The mineral zinc not only promotes protein synthesis in the human body, but also improves skin health. Its deficiency will affect the growth, development and reproductive function of the human body. Therefore, it is very important to learn how to supplement correctly.

Daily dietary supplement recommendations: The mineral zinc can be obtained from fish, oysters, clams and other seafood. As for B vitamins, oats, eggs and other ingredients are also good dietary sources.

Layer 3 - Enhance the body's antioxidant capacity: Strengthen the supply of vitamins C and D and set up an invisible protective net

As for the third level, Zhao Hanying mentioned that from a nutritional point of view, doing the above two things is enough to maintain basic protection. However, it is worth noting that modern people are subject to high work pressure, emotional tension, and exposure to large amounts of blue light and environmental hormones, which often easily produce a large number of free radicals, increase oxidative stress, and thus affect the normal functioning of the human body's physiological functions.

Therefore, in addition to supplementing the above nutrients during extraordinary times, it is crucial to moderately increase the intake of vitamin C to help improve the body's antioxidant capacity and set up an invisible protective net for the body! Moreover, when vitamin C is deficient or insufficient, it can easily affect the normal functioning of the human body's physiological functions and reduce the ability to fight against foreign pathogens or viral infections.

Therefore, Zhao Hanying's nutritionist recommends that people should develop the habit of "579 fruits and vegetables" to enhance their own protection. If you are really too busy to prepare a variety of fruits and vegetables for consumption, then choosing a diet rich in vitamin C and supplementing it with health foods is also one of the ways to help maintain the normal functioning of the human body's physiological functions.

Daily dietary supplement recommendations: If you want to supplement vitamin C, you can eat more fresh fruits and vegetables such as guava, bell pepper, kiwi, Indian cherry, soursop, etc. As for vitamin D, it is recommended to consume egg yolks, mushrooms, mackerel and other foods.

Are people who eat out prone to nutritional imbalance? In extraordinary times, choose compound fermented protection essence drink to help you protect your health and upgrade your protection

However, office workers are usually busy with work and family, and they rarely have the opportunity to cook and prepare meals by themselves. In addition, during the epidemic prevention period, many people often choose to order takeout and avoid going out to reduce the risk of infection. What should we do if it is difficult to get the above nutrients by eating out for three meals? Nutritionist Zhao Hanying said that for this group of people, she believes that in extraordinary times, moderately choosing nutritional supplements that are beneficial to health and can adjust physical constitution is another self-care option.

Among them, Richvita's "Compound Fermented Protective Essence Drink" includes a variety of compound ingredients. In addition to energy zinc and lactoferrin, it also contains yeast extract, West Indian cherry and many other important nutrients needed by the human body. At the same time, the fermented liquid of soursop, a rare ingredient from the Incas and known as the "king of fruits", is added. It is rich in natural enzyme ingredients, which is very beneficial for enhancing protection.

Its unique liquid design makes it easy to absorb, and its lactic acid flavor makes it easy to drink, making it suitable for both adults and children. In the summer, it can be placed in the refrigerator and drunk cold, making it a good choice of nutritional supplements for people in extraordinary times. It is recommended that people may choose to drink it in the morning or afternoon, or between meals, to protect themselves from the inside out. This is a health secret that can protect your health through fermentation, which can upgrade your protection and successfully resist the impact of changes in the internal and external environment.
