5 dishes to boost immunity to help prevent hepatitis B

Quang Minh (THEO ABOLUOWANG) |

Here are 5 nutritious dishes that have been shown to boost immunity, contributing to the prevention and control of hepatitis B.

My favorite stewed mushroom chicken soup

Cucumbers contain beta-glucan and lentinan, polysaccharides that activate NK cells (Natural Killers) - one of the most important defense lines of the congenital immune system.

Lentinan has been shown to help boost the immune response in patients infected with viruses, including hepatitis B.

Combined with chicken - a source of high-quality protein and rich in zinc, this soup not only nourishes but also helps increase antibodies production and regulate T cells.

Glossy pennywort mixed with peanuts

Gotu kola contains many triterpenoids - a powerful antioxidant that helps restore liver tissue and reduce inflammation. Research from the journal Frontiers in Pharmacology (2023) shows that pennywort extract can significantly reduce signs of hepatitis in animals infected with HBV.

Peanuts supplement vitamin E, magnesium and plant protein, supporting the immune system by reducing oxidative stress, especially effective during the period of chronic hepatitis.

Lemon Pan-fried Salmon

Salmon is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which have anti-inflammatory effects, reduce liver fat and enhance immune cell function.

According to the American Clinical Nutrition Association, people who eat fish rich in omega-3 at least twice a week are at lower risk of liver virus infection thanks to improved immune response.

In addition, vitamin D in salmon is recognized to play an important role in regulating the immune system, helping the body create an effective viral response.

Ginger-bike pumpkin soup

Pumpkin contains beta-caroten - a precursor to vitamin A that helps strengthen mucous membranes and liver cells. Ginger is rich in gingerol - a natural anti-inflammatory, which has the ability to inhibit the proliferation of HBV in vitro studies.

This soup has the effect of increasing blood circulation, supporting liver detoxification and improving the body's natural immune system.

Pomegranate and orange juice

Pomegranate contains punicalagin and anthocyanin, which are extremely powerful antioxidants.

Oranges are a supplement to vitamin C, which is necessary for the production of white blood cells and antibodies. A report from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations confirmed that a diet rich in vitamin C significantly improves the ability to fight viruses, including HBV, by enhancing the activity of lymphocytes and T cells.
