How can I strengthen my child’s immune system?
introduction
The human immune system is subject to a lifelong learning process and is therefore constantly changing. It is therefore only logical that children and especially babies usually do not yet have a particularly strong protection from their immune system. This only develops in the course and is trained by all possible different environmental influences. Although aging is the best training for the immune system, there are several other ways to strengthen and train it in early years.
How does the immune system in children differ from adults?
As already mentioned, the immune system is subject to a constant learning process. So that the baby is not born completely unprotected, the baby gets a so-called in the last months of pregnancy "Nest protection" from the mother With. This is a specific type of antibody (IgG) that is small enough to pass from the mother’s blood to the fetus in the placenta.
