My first encounter with Nutritional Immunology was when I was preparing for pregnancy. As carrying and growing a baby is very demanding on a mother’s body, nutrition is critical before and during the pregnancy. During then, my hubby urged me to take supplements. Trained as a chemical engineer, I inherently was not keen on such supplements. So, when my hubby passes it to me, I take. Otherwise, I don’t. This continued till we met a friend at a seminar, who introduced this freeze dried wholesome food to us. At that point in time, I was just taking it to prepare for pregnancy.
Comparison of fresh fruits and vegetables and their freeze-dried counterparts
After I gave birth to my baby boy, I also stopped taking the freeze-dried wholesome foods because I didn’t understand the concept of nutritional immunology as yet and the value of prevention. After I went back to work, I started to fall sick very easily. It was as bad as a fever every 2 weeks, 3-4 days mc. To add oil to the fire, when I got sick, the virus would spread within the household. Soon, even my parents in laws, brother in laws and my hubby would take turn to fall sick after me. That took quite a toll on the family as we also had to cope with a young child.
For me, I found it surprising, as I never even fell sick once during my whole pregnancy, even though pregnant ladies are expected to have weaker immune systems. I started comparing my lifestyle before pregnancy vs then just back to work and made a decision to start on nutritional immunology foods again. Surprisingly, after 1-2 months, I noticed that I was no longer getting sick that often. Even when I fell ill, I would be able to bounce back within 1 day.
This sparked my interest in understanding more and more about the science of Nutritional Immunology as it could have great benefit to many people who are struggling with day to day health issues. From there, I learnt that these foods are not only formulated on the basis of Nutritional Immunology. At the same time, they are also subjected to the highest testing standards, 2000 different tests on each batch carried out including heavy metals, pesticides, microbial content and the list goes on.
After adopting the science of Nutritional Immunology into our lives, my family has benefitted greatly from this science. There is no longer virus running free in our household.
Nutritional Immunology also has helped him to recover from an episode of serious eczema in just less than 1 month.
Before Nutritional Immunology, my MIL was taking glucosamine for her joints. However, her mobility was very impacted by her joint pain. She even had to struggle walking down steps. There was a point in time, she would always look for lifts wherever she went.
With the help of Nutritional Immunology, we saw her gradual improvement. Initially, she managed to start walking down steps without feeling pain. Then, she was able to walk much faster compared to in the past. Today, we are able to take a trip as a family to Langkawi and she could navigate the bat caves without any issues!
Many of my friends and family have regained their health and beauty and learnt to be wiser consumers as well.
So here am I, my mission is to share with you and as many people as possible on the healthier way of life so that we can enjoy a quality lifestyle and stay away from diseases. Join me, as I guide you on this journey in Nutritional Immunology and share more about some health misconceptions.
