Our Spirulina Laddu & Enhanced Immunity
Our immune system protects us from pathogenic organisms (bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites). To deal with this array of threats, the immune system has evolved to include a myriad of specialized cell types, communicating molecules and functional responses. The immune system is always active, carrying out surveillance, but its activity is enhanced if an individual becomes infected. This heightened activity is accompanied by an increased rate of metabolism, requiring energy sources, substrates for biosynthesis and regulatory molecules, which are all ultimately derived from the diet. A number of vitamins (A, B6, B12, folate, C, D and E) and trace elements (zinc, copper, selenium, iron) have been demonstrated to have key roles in supporting the human immune system and reducing risk of infections. Other essential nutrients including other vitamins and trace elements, amino acids and fatty acids are also important. Each of the nutrients named above has roles in supporting antibacterial and antiviral defense.
The gut microbiota plays a role in educating and regulating the immune system. Gut dysbiosis is also a feature of disease including many infectious diseases and has been described in COVID-19. Spirulina infused dietary approaches like our Spirulina Laddu can be used to achieve a healthy microbiota that benefit the immune system.
The Spirulina in our Spirulina Laddu, is the best single source for most of the aforementioned nutrients. It would therefore seem prudent for individuals to consume spirulina infused food options containing these essential nutrients to support their immune system to help them deal with and safeguard against potential pathogens.
