Immune response to pathogens and detoxification of the body, for example, after Covid 19 vaccination
Thus, nutrition has a decisive influence on the strength of the immune system's response to vaccinations or pathogens. The immune system can be compromised in people who are already ill, as well as in old or severely overweight people. However, it can also be compromised if the intake of micronutrients is too low. This can lead to an increased susceptibility to infection and a more severe disease course. This has been demonstrated in the Covid-19 epidemic. In particular, older and often overweight people were more severely affected. Studies have also shown that a good supply of micronutrients can prevent severe disease courses.
