The role of micronutrients in improving immune function

Immunity refers to the action of identifying and removing viruses or bacteria that have invaded the body from the outside. It protects cells from pathogens such as viruses and parasites, and these immune defenses are very important for maintaining a healthy body. On the other hand, an excessive immune response or autoimmune reaction should be suppressed to maintain good health status. A proper immune system requires sustained apoptosis and production of immune cells. Cell metabolism requires an adequate supply of essential micronutrients such as minerals and vitamins. Iron, selenium, zinc, vitamins A, B, C, D, and E act as coenzymes to regulate redox processes and gene expression in cell metabolism. Therefore, in order to maintain proper immune function, an adequate supply of micronutrients and vitamins plays a positive role in improving immune function.
