Foods You Should Serve Your Kids to Improve Their Immunity
增強寶寶免疫力的食物
Blueberries
藍莓
In addition to being a great source of antioxidants, blueberries activate special immune cells called myeloid dendritic cells that protect the body against infection. Researchers have also shown that eating blueberries can improve the immune benefits of exercise, which kids should get plenty of playing outside in the summer.
除了是抗氧化劑的絕佳來源之外，藍莓還能激活被稱之爲骨髓樹突狀細胞的特殊免疫細胞，保護身體免受感染。研究員表示，吃藍莓還能提高鍛鍊的免疫益處（夏天來了，應多讓小孩子在戶外玩耍）。
Fresh blueberries are a delicious snack, but you can get creative by making a kid-friendly smoothie with fresh or frozen blueberries blended with plain yogurt.
新鮮藍莓是道美味零食，但也可以用新鮮藍莓榨汁或在原味酸奶上撒冷凍藍莓，寶寶會很喜歡哦！
Broccoli Sprouts
西蘭花芽
Regular broccoli is an immunity booster, but it's not very kid-friendly. Try broccoli sprouts instead. These three-day old tendrils are baby plants that have a mild, nutty taste that most children won’t mind. And when it comes to immune benefits, which comes from a natural chemical called sulforaphane, sprouts pack a whopping punch. Broccoli sprouts contain as much as 100 times more sulforaphane than full-grown broccoli.
西蘭花本身就可以增強免疫力，但大多數小孩兒卻不喜歡吃。試着讓寶寶吃西蘭花芽吧。只需三天，西蘭花上就可形成一種堅果味兒的幼苗，大多數寶寶都不介意這種味道。就免疫益處而言，西蘭花芽富含蘿蔔硫素這一天然化學物。西蘭花芽的蘿蔔硫素含量是西蘭花的100倍。
Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Stanford and the University Children’s Hospital Basel in Switzerland showed that drinking a shake made with broccoli sprouts can greatly enhance the body’s immune response to a virus compared to a placebo shake.
北卡羅來納大學教堂山分校、斯坦福大學位於瑞士的巴塞爾兒童醫院的研究員表示，與安慰劑奶昔相比，喝西蘭花芽奶昔可大大增強兒童對病毒的免疫力。
Mushrooms
蘑菇
Mushrooms are a great source of immune-stimulating beta-glucan. A study from University of Western Sydney in Australia showed eating white button mushrooms could improve the number of infection-fighting antibodies in the saliva. The mushrooms activated the gut, which stimulated the immune system to produce the antibodies.
蘑菇是免疫刺激劑β-葡聚糖的重要來源。澳大利亞西悉尼大學的一項研究表明，吃白蘑菇可以增加唾液中抗感染抗體的數量。蘑菇會刺激腸道，進而刺激免疫系統產生抗體。
Think mushrooms are a hard sell to your kids? Saute them in a pan with some olive oil, and then mix them finely chopped into an omelet as it's cooking. Or make an old-fashioned mushroom barley soup.
寶寶不喜歡吃蘑菇？在鍋中倒入橄欖油，煎炒蘑菇，然後將煎好的蘑菇切碎放入正在烹飪的雞蛋卷中。再或者，做一份老式的蘑菇大麥湯吧！
Kiwifruit
獼猴桃
In addition to its brilliant color and sweet taste, kiwifruit can improve immunity by supporting our healthy gut bacteria, or what's also called as our microbiome. These bacteria actually help control our body’s immune response. Researchers from the National University of Singapore found that eating just two kiwifruits a day could increase one beneficial bacteria called Lactobacillus by as much as 35 percent in only 24 hours
獼猴桃色澤鮮豔、多汁味美，可以通過維持健康的腸道細菌或腸道微生物菌羣增強免疫力。這些細菌有助於控制身體的免疫反應。新加坡國立大學的研究員發現：每天吃2顆獼猴桃可以在24小時內將體內一種叫做乳桿菌的有益細菌數量增加35%。
