Good food and nutrition during self-quarantine

Assalamualaikum
Hallo guys, I hope you are always healthy
I'm Aisya, here I will present what foods and good nutrition are during self-quarantine
The Importance of The Role of Balanced Nutritional Intake in The Body's Immunity,
"Nutrients cannot directly prevent or treat infectious diseases, but a good nutritional
intake can improve the body's immunity and defenses to fight infection so as to speed up the
healing process."(Kesembuhan et al., n.d.)
Increase food sources of protein. The main function of proteins is to maintain and repair
damaged cells. Protein also plays a role in forming antibodies in white blood cells, so it can
increase the immune response and kill more viruses / bacteria that enter the body. Various
sources of protein are beef, chicken, fish, milk and its processed products, tempeh, tofu, nuts, and
others.(Kesembuhan et al., n.d.)
Multiply the micronutrients found naturally in vegetables and fruits. Micronutrients
consisting of vitamins and minerals have the ability to increase immunity and antioxidants to
prevent inflammation. Meet the needs of vitamins A, C, D, E, iron, selenium and zinc which are
also widely found in vegetables and fruits.(Kesembuhan et al., n.d.)

Pentingnya Peran Asupan Gizi Seimbang dalam Imunitas Tubuh
"Zat gizi tidak dapat secara langsung mencegah atau mengobati penyakit infeksi, tetapi
asupan gizi yang baik dapat meningkatkan imunitas dan pertahanan tubuh untuk melawan infeksi
sehingga dapat mempercepat proses penyembuhannya".
Perbanyak bahan pangan sumber protein. Fungsi utama protein adalah memelihara dan
memperbaiki sel-sel yang rusak. Protein juga berperan membentuk antibodi dalam sel darah
putih, sehingga dapat meningkatkan respon kekebalan tubuh dan membunuh lebih banyak
virus/bakteri yang masuk tubuh. Berbagai sumber protein adalah daging sapi, ayam, ikan, susu
dan hasil olahannya, tempe, tahu, kacang-kacangan, dan lain-lain.
Perbanyak zat gizi mikro yang terdapat alami pada sayur dan buah. Zat gizi mikro yang
terdiri dari vitamin dan mineral mempunyai kemampuan untuk meningkatkan imunitas serta
antioksidan untuk mencegah inflamasi/peradangan. Penuhi kebutuhan vitamin A, C, D, E, zat
besi, selenium serta zinc yang juga banyak terdapat di sayur dan buah.
Kesembuhan, U. M., Menghindari, D. A. N., & Yang, G. (n.d.). Gizi seimbang selama masa
