Eating a healthy diet plays a critical role in supporting our immune system, which protects us from a wide array of disease-causing pathogens, including the deadly coronavirus. . . . Healthy eating habits are crucial to maintaining strong immunity, says Hannah Braye, a certified nutrition specialist. . . .” “Our immune system is on duty 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. It includes our skin, enzymes in our tears and the numerous immune cells circulating in our bloodstream. The immune system also includes the trillions of immune-modulating bacteria residing within our guts. We are constantly exposed to all kinds of bacteria, viruses, fungi and other potentially disease-causing microorganisms on a daily basis. As long as our immune system is functioning well, we are largely able to resist infection. Nutrition plays a critical role in determining immune health.”
