Abstract in brief

  • Nutritional deficiencies can negatively impact immune function, but higher intake of certain nutrients may enhance immune defenses and help resist infections.
  • The review explores the effects of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, micronutrients like zinc and vitamins D and E, and functional foods like probiotics and tea on immune health.
  • While many studies show positive results in improving immune responses and reducing infections, inconsistent findings highlight the need for better study designs and clear outcome measurements in future research.
