Immunity: It’s Important for More than Covid

Immunity isn't just about fighting COVID-19—It helps fight all external pathogens – germs, viruses and some environmental toxins, and sometimes it can identify and kill cancer cells (but it isn't a "silver bullet" that can always kill tumors or eliminate all toxins).

Do these three things to help ensure you build up your immunity:

1. Eating well is the key to staying healthy, and that starts with protein. You need enough protein to be able to repair body tissue and fight viral and bacterial infections. Your body needs protein to create immune system antibodies that attack infections, so make sure to get the right amount.

Medical studies show that adults-over-40 intake should be about 30 grams, THREE TIMES a day, to help maintain muscle (30-30-30). We believe that's good advice for maintaining your immune system as well. UNJURY® helps you get high quality protein in a tasty and convenient way. And, all UNJURY® protein supplements and products are shelf stable—so they'll last over a year after they arrive.

2. Get into a regular sleep routine. Sleep helps regulate immune function. Similarly, if you don't get enough sleep (it isn't easy, but try for eight hours a night), it can have a negative effect on your immune response. To get enough sleep, try going to bed and waking up at the same time. Your body will thank you!

3. Vitamins and minerals matter too! Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Vitamin E and Zinc all support your immune system. With everything going on, it’s almost impossible to track vitamin intake from foods. It's far easier to use a high-quality multivitamin such as our OPURITY® Multivitamins. That is an extra layer of support. Our multivitamins are available for adults in general as well as specifically for Bariatric patients, in both chewable and capsules.
