    Infections, bacterial infection, decrease body's immunity system. To enhance your immunity, you need to take good care of your diets . Have more green leafy vegetablales, foods rich in antioxidants like pomegrante, sprouts, green tea etc. Have fruits rich in Vitamin C like citrus fruits. Have freshly squeeze lemon juice, as it maintains and balances the pH of the stomach. Include protein rich foods.

    Some foods which helps to increase immunity are as follows-
    * Green Tea-It contains the antioxidant EGCG which reduces the risk of most types of cancer. It also inhibits the growth of bad bacteria in the intestine. Experts agree that 4 cups of green tea a day will keep our immune system functioning at its peak.
    * Chillies-Chilies stimulate the metabolism. They also act as a natural blood thinner and help release endorphins. Chilies are also rich in beta-carotene, which turns into vitamin A in the blood and fights infections. They are also believed to have anti-prostrate cancer properties. They also help if you have a blocked nose.
    * Ginger -It contains living compound Gingerol, a suppressor that is particularly effective against colon cancer. It is also good for common cold or flu.
    * Garlic-Garlic is known for its cold-fighting abilities. It increases the potency of two important cells of the immune system: T-lymphocytes and macrophages.
    * Turmeric-It has been used for centuries as part of Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese medicines, in addition to being used for cooking. It has strong cold and flu-fighting properties.
    * Cinnamon-This is a staple spice in any Indian kitchen. Cinnamon is rich in antioxidants that inhibit blood clotting and bacterial growth. It also helps stabilize blood sugar thus reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes. Cinnamon also helps fight bad cholesterol. It also helps control bad breath.
    * Sweet Potatoes-Sweet potatoes contain glutathione, an antioxidant that can enhance nutrient metabolism and immune-system, as well as protect against Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, liver disease, cystic fibrosis, HIV, cancer, heart attack and diabetes.
    * Pumpkins-Pumpkins is loaded with beta-carotene, a nutrient that the body breaks down to make vitamin A which is essential for immunity.
    * Tomatoes-The ubiquitous tomatoes are great in fighting herpes and help in protecting against degenerative diseases.
    * Figs-This fruit is packed with potassium, manganese, and antioxidants. Figs also helps support proper pH levels in the body, making it more difficult for pathogens to invade. The fiber in figs can lower insulin and blood-sugar levels, reducing the risk of diabetes and metabolic syndrome.
    * Mushrooms-They reduce the risk of cancer. Mushrooms help ramp up your immune response by boosting the production of white blood cells. This helps the cells by increasing cellular metabolism, removing toxins, and preventing damage from free radicals.
    * Pomegranates (anaar)-It is a cancer fighting fruit. Drinking the juice of a pomegranate each day will keep the cancer at bay.
