“The immune system is affected by regular exercise, or lack of exercise.
A sedentary lifestyle negatively affects immunity.
As for excessive physical activity, including sports, overloading always negatively affects immunity, ”he said in an interview with Sputnik radio.
Vikulov noted that overvoltage is a strong stress factor that suppresses many immunological reactions through endocrine mechanisms.
In addition, the immunologist recommended giving up the abundant intake of fatty foods.
“Among internal factors, immunity is influenced by the state of the cardiovascular system, which is associated, in particular, with the level of cholesterol.
Therefore, the absorption of food saturated with fats, followed by an increase in cholesterol levels, has a negative effect on immunity, "Vikulov said.
Earlier, therapist-immunologist Vladislav Zhemchugov, in an interview with the NSN, gave recommendations on strengthening the immune system.
