Kapanlagi.com - Various predictions regarding when the pandemic of COVID-19 Corona Virus will end. The results vary, some mention months, even years. What is clear is that Ramadan this year will take place amidst the pandemic. So, Muslims must be able to maintain their immune system while fasting. But, how to maintain the immune system during fasting?
Because, as we know, the immune system is an important factor in avoiding COVID-19 Corona Virus. However, when performing Ramadan fasting, Muslims cannot eat and drink as much as usual. Energy for exercising and carrying out activities will also be very limited while fasting.
That is why it is advisable to find the right way to maintain the immune system during Ramadan fasting without disturbing worship. That way, worship can still run smoothly and the body can stay healthy and protected from COVID-19 Corona Virus.
Here are some ways to maintain the immune system during Ramadan fasting.

During fasting, meal times are indeed limited. However, this should not be a barrier to still being able to meet nutritional needs. Because our bodies will always need various nutrients. Well, we can fulfill these nutritional needs during iftar and suhoor.
Regarding our body's immune system, in addition to carbohydrates which function as an energy source, our bodies also need intake of vitamin C and zinc compounds. We can obtain vitamin C by consuming various fruits and vegetables such as oranges, apples, kiwis, broccoli, tomatoes, spinach, and others. Meanwhile, zinc can be obtained from chicken, beef, and various types of vegetables.
Even though you have chosen a menu with balanced nutrition, there may be times when you experience a nutrient deficiency due to various reasons, such as suddenly losing your appetite. If this happens, you can still maintain your body's immune system.
Quoted from liputan6, Dr. Suci Sutinah Diah Suksmasari revealed that supplements can be one way to meet our body's nutritional needs. However, it is still important to pay attention to the type of supplements you consume during Ramadan fasting.
It has become common knowledge that getting enough sleep is one of the keys to maintaining the body's immune system. This is not just an empty claim, as lack of sleep can activate cortisol hormones in the body. This hormone can cause stress and weaken the immune system. However, during Ramadan, the duration of sleep may decrease due to the pre-dawn meal.
Therefore, it is advisable to maintain a regular sleep pattern while fasting. Fulfill your sleep needs for at least 7 hours for adults. One way to meet sleep needs during fasting is by taking a nap. However, it is also recommended not to nap for too long, as it can decrease mood and weaken the immune system.

In addition to getting enough sleep, exercise is also one of the keys to maintaining the body's immune system. However, while fasting, it is advisable to choose suitable types of exercise. Choose exercises that do not require too much energy, such as walking or cycling.
In addition to the type of exercise, it is also important to exercise at the right time. During Ramadan, you can exercise in the morning after dawn or in the evening before breaking the fast. Avoid exercising during the midday sun, as it can lead to dehydration.

One way to maintain your immune system during Ramadan fasting is by keeping a happy and stress-free mood. Stress can be one of the triggers for a weakened immune system.
However, during fasting, the body will feel more tired than usual. As a result, we tend to be lazy to do various activities. When that happens, boredom is inevitable and stress may just be waiting to happen.
So it's best to avoid stress by engaging in activities and not exerting too much energy during fasting. You can also relieve stress by doing activities that you enjoy. Additionally, don't forget to get enough sleep and exercise, as mentioned earlier.
Well, those are among the 5 ways to maintain your immune system during Ramadan fasting. By following the above methods, your immune system will be maintained and you will be more protected from the COVID-19 coronavirus. Also, don't forget to practice hand hygiene, wear a mask, and practice social distancing, of course.
