Boost Your Immunity With 5-hour ENERGY®
Build Up a Healthy Immune System
Since the start of Phase 3 in December last year, more Singaporeans have been heading out to reconnect with friends and family, especially during the Lunar New Year period. With the increasing crowds in public spaces, let’s explore how we can boost our immune system.
What is the Immune System?
Vitamin Bs for Immunity Support
• Vitamin B3 (Niacin) Reduces Inflammation in the Lungs
Vitamin B3 is a key component of various metabolic pathways. When activated, it decreases the level of pro-inflammatory substances in the body. Additionally, Nicotinamide—one of the two forms of vitamin B3—functions to reduce viral replication.
• Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) Regulates the Immune System
Vitamin B6 increases the production of a powerful anti-inflammatory protein called IL-10 in the body. This protein regulates the immune response, helping clear infections while minimizing damage to the body.
• Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin) Maintains Immune System Balance
To stay healthy and support your immune system, it’s important to maintain the right levels of vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 is essential for the production of red blood cells, DNA, and cell growth. Low levels of vitamin B12 result in increased inflammation and decreased immune response.
