One piece of black garlic rich in allicin, disulfide and trisulfide a day, it can significantly improve the phagocytic function of macrophages and enhance the immune system.

Lycopene contained in tomato is the strongest antioxidant among all carotenoids. It can prevent cells and DNA from being damaged. It can also activate immune cells, improve immunity and reduce the risk of disease. One cup of tomato juice every night before bed can help produce “melanotropin” and prolong the duration of sleep. Sufficient sleep can help strengthen the body’s immunity.
Apple pectin is a powerful prebiotic which activates the probiotics in the body and is converted into butyrate by intestinal bacteria, thereby inhibiting the secretion of histone deacetylase (HDAC) by the astrocytes of the brain, acting as histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi). It can be used as an immunomodulator. A sachet of apple pectin before each meal can reduce inflammatory chemokines. Studies have showed that it can strengthen the immune system and prevent viral infections.
