1 cup of milk per day
Protein is closely related to the body's immune function, and it is easy to affect the body's normal immune function when the intake is insufficient. Tissues and organs such as epithelium, mucosa, thymus, liver, spleen, and antibodies, complements, various cytokines, immunoglobulins, and lysozymes in the serum are mainly composed of proteins.

Get enough sleep 1 time per night
When people are sleep-deprived, their spirit will become sluggish, which will also cause cancer patients to constantly fatigue physically and mentally, which is very unfavorable to their own body regulation. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure 7 to 8 hours of sleep every day, and it is best to go to bed before 23:00. In order to ensure the quality of sleep, you can read a book before going to bed to keep the sleeping environment quiet and air circulation. There is also a lunch break of about half an hour during the lunch break every day.
Exercise for 30 minutes once a day
Exercise is a good medicine in the process of fighting cancer and is also an indispensable part of improving the immunity of patients. Exercise not only enhances the function of the immune system, but also increases the number of immune cells, thereby strengthening immunity.
