Spring Cold Prevention: Invest in Health and Nourish the Kidneys
Spring is the high incidence period for various infectious diseases such as influenza, meningitis, pneumonia, and measles. These diseases have a common characteristic: they all take advantage of the situation when human immunity decreases. Experts remind you that instead of suffering when sick and spending a lot on medical expenses, it would be better to focus on improving your own immunity regularly to prevent these diseases from occurring.
A decrease in immunity can hide "potential health hazards." The reason healthy people are not invaded by diseases is entirely due to the natural immune protection barrier within their bodies, especially a type of immune-active cell called T cells that can respond to viral pathogens. After entering middle age, the thymus that produces T cells in the human body begins to atrophy, leading to a reduction in the production of T cells, which directly results in a gradual decline in immunity. With the increasing spring temperatures, bacteria reproduce in large quantities, and combined with a decrease in one's own resistance, it becomes easier to fall ill, leading to the high incidence of epidemic diseases such as influenza, chronic bronchitis, and asthma.
