IMMUNE POWER DIET: THE IMMUNE-POSITIVE VITAMINS
Vitamins are clearly among the most essential immune building blocks. We have long known that there are thirteen essential vitamins necessary for growth and health.
Each of these does a, different job in your body. Do you find yourself more tired and fatigued than you feel you ought to be? People who say "yes" are often suffering from a lack of vitamin A, E, or C, or an imbalance of the  complex vitamins. Maybe you are plagued by nervous problems that make you seem tuned "too fast." Do you have trouble falling asleep? Are you often jittery, nervous, and anxious? Are you one of those people who seems to react much more strongly to financial, work, and family stresses than others? If you recognize yourself here, you can probably benefit by taking the "nerve tonic" vitamins: Pyridoxine (B6), Niacin (B3), and Cobalamin (B12).
Mood and emotions can also reflect our vitamin levels. Do you often find yourself depressed or blue? Do you often explode irritably at those around you? Do you notice yourself riding a mood roller coaster, where you're happy, then gloomy, in the space of a few hours? If any of these sound familiar, your vitamin accounts may be out of balance. You might be a good candidate for the  vitamins, especially Thiamine (B1) and Cobalamin (B12).
In addition to building and strengthening the body's cells, vitamins work with enzymes to speed up chemical reactions in the body. This means that proper levels of vitamins work to give us a faster, more aggressive immune defense. Although all vitamins are important, four are especially critical for strong immune health: Ñ, E, A, and  complex.
