Micronutrients Why and How

Abstract

Nutrition is one of the important factors that affect the immune system. The key nutrients for a healthy immune system are proteins, antioxidants, micronutrients, prebiotics, and probiotics. The only food that has all the nutrients needed by the body is breastmilk. Breastmilk is not sterile since it has its own microbial composition. It helps in the development of a breastfed infant’s gut microbiome.
