Characteristics of the newborn immunity is immature immune system development, imperfection of function, not yet contact with a variety of pathogen of outside the womb, and no contact with a wide variety of food proteins and other antigenic substances. Due to the impact of mother's antibodies through the placenta during pregnancy, newborn has a physiological low immunity. This article provides the following four important aspects for parents to enhance newborns immunity. First, rational nutrition In neonatal period, baby has high nutritional needs, limited digestion metabolism, therefore, requires both an adequate amount of nutrition to ensure growth and development needs, but over-feeding will cause heavy burden to neonatal gastrointestinal tract. Appropriate control of rational nutrition has the most decisive influence on enhancing physique and immunity. Intake of a balanced nutrition every day can meet the needs of the body growth to improve immunity. Protein is the main component of immune cells and antibodies. Vitamin C can stimulate the body to produce interferon, and intake of enough vitamins can increase the antibody and remove viruses and bacteria, to enhance the immune system. Second, vaccination In the neonatal period, although the maternal immune globulin has provided some antibodies, infants are still highly susceptible groups of many infectious diseases. Vaccination is an effective way to resist bacteria, and the early effective neonatal vaccination can prevent the most dangerous infectious diseases such as tuberculosis, hepatitis B and so on. Third, breastfeeding Breast milk contains more the immune active substances than milk replacer, and can supply all the necessary nutrients for the newborn: protein, fat, lactose, vitamins, iron, especially the antibodies that fight infection (immune globulin) and anti-infective active white blood cells, bifidus factor, lysozyme etc., they can enhance the immune function, prevent the growth of harmful bacteria, and reduce the chance of baby infection. Fourth, newborns massage Massage is gentle stimulation of neonatal skin sensory, causing systemic neurological, endocrine and immune systems a series of benign response. It can promote the secretion of gastrointestinal hormones, help to increase children's appetite, promote digestion, absorption and excretion, and accelerate growth of weight. Also massage can exercise the baby's muscles, so that more robust physical development. In addition, the skin stimulation has direct and indirect effects on enhancing immune function, benefits both physical and mental health development of newborns. To enhance neonatal immunity and reduce the chances of infection baby, in addition to a balanced, adequate nutrition, promotion of breastfeeding, vaccination, and actively and effectively enhance the physique, the good habit of washing newborns' hands frequently and strengthen indoor air ventilation are also very important.
