Immunity is the body’s own defense mechanism, the body’s ability to identify and destroy foreign invaders (viruses, bacteria, etc.), deal with aging, damage, death, degeneration of its own cells, as well as identify and deal with mutated cells and virus-infected cells in the body, is the body’s physiological response to identify and exclude “foreigners”. Myth 1: Too clean Children are too clean, less exposure to germs, then less antibody production, resistance will be weakened, and may lead to allergies and autoimmune disorders. Therefore, as long as the usual keep indoor air circulation, frequent hand washing can be, soap, water can achieve the purpose of cleaning, rather than sterile. Myth 2: over-protective children The weather is cold, closed doors and windows, do not let the baby go out, do not know that the closed environment is more conducive to the reproduction of bacteria and viruses, so that the baby’s respiratory tract is not stimulated by the outside air for a long time, do not get exercise, long the body becomes weak and unbearable. Therefore, any child should refuse to be pampered, only constant stimulation to improve immunity. Myth 3: Antibiotics are used once you have a cold and fever Fever when you have a cold is the child’s physiological defense response to resist disease, a certain degree of fever body metabolism can be accelerated, the immune function is active, antibody production increases, liver detoxification function is enhanced, after this process, the child’s immunity, the stress capacity to germs will be improved. Of course it refers to the short-term fever that does not exceed 38.5 degrees, the correct approach to cold and fever is symptomatic treatment, do not immediately inject and take medicine, rely on external stimulation to make their own immune system to exercise and exercise, abuse of antibiotics will increase drug resistance and other side effects. Myth 4: Rely on drugs to improve immunity In addition to vaccination, there is no one-size-fits-all medicine to prevent sickness. Although there are immune drugs with certain immune regulating ability clinically, but this is not for a specific bacteria or virus, some also have some side effects and should not be over-relied on. The familiar gammaglobulin is part of the antibody, but after using it will also inhibit their own ability to synthesize gammaglobulin, and may cause allergies and other adverse reactions, and even cause hepatitis, AIDS, etc., so parents in the choice of immune drugs for babies, it is best to consult a doctor, do not use blindly. Myth 5: Children’s illness is low immunity Children’s immunity is a gradual development process, after 6 months of age children’s body antibody level is the lowest, so it is not surprising that the cold and fever, some minor illnesses, after all, immune function is low children are a minority, if the frequency of illness, can go to the hospital to do an immune function test, such as no problem may be related to care, especially irregular life, diet structure is not enough The immune system is not necessarily low. Myth 6: The stronger the immune system, the better. A good immune system is in a dynamic state of balance, not the higher the better, lupus erythematosus, dermatomyositis, etc. Myth 7: The better the baby eats, the more refined the better There are all kinds of meat on the table, long-term to the baby’s preference for high-protein fish, fine grain, do not eat coarse vegetables, “love” too much, in fact, coarse grains and vegetables can provide fine grain lack of vitamins, fiber and other nutrients, from a medical point of view, regardless of coarse and fine, as long as From a medical point of view, regardless of the coarse or fine, as long as it is conducive to the development of children is a good diet, as long as you can achieve a balanced diet, reasonable nutrition on the line. At present, there are many kinds of health care products, and many of them claim to “enhance immune function”, which is false and exaggerated propaganda, you should know that health care products are not a cure for diseases and have not been clinically proven, so do not believe in this magical propaganda, abuse may cause harm to the human immunity. Especially when taking health food containing hormones is not appropriate, not to mention the so-called immune function is not measured, and there is no evidence-based medical support, do not fall for it.
