As a parent, you want to do everything you can to keep your baby healthy and strong. An important part of that is strengthening your baby's immune system to protect them from infections and diseases.
Vitamins and nutrients
Ensure your baby gets enough nutrients, especially vitamin C and zinc. This can be achieved through a balanced diet or, if necessary, supplements, but always consult your pediatrician.
Zinc and vitamin C are important nutrients for the immune system. Zinc can be found in foods such as meat, fish, legumes, nuts, and seeds. Vitamin C is found in fresh fruits and vegetables such as peppers, oranges, kiwi, pineapple, and broccoli.
Some examples of foods that contain both zinc and vitamin C are chicken, beef, lentils, almonds, peppers, and oranges.
However, it's important to note that babies shouldn't be introduced to solid foods yet, and it's best to feed them breast milk or formula until they're at least 6 months old. Talk to your pediatrician if you plan to introduce solid foods to your baby early, and make sure you're following the recommended amounts of vitamins and minerals to avoid the risk of overdose.
Fresh air and the necessary hygiene and peace
Promote a hygienic environment for your baby by washing your hands regularly, keeping the environment clean, and making sure your baby gets plenty of fresh air and exercise.
Promote Regular relaxation and sleep support your baby's immune system. A well-rested body is better able to fight off infections. Avoid excessive stress and encourage your baby to exercise and play regularly. Exercise and play promote blood circulation and support the immune system.
