Spring is a season of illness. Eating fruits not only replenishes essential vitamins and water for the body, but some fruits can also enhance the body's resistance. Eating more of the following 6 fruits can help you boost your resistance and improve your body's immunity.
1. Orange
Frequent emotional excitement increases the risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, and stroke. Experts from Harvard Medical School recommend that people often eat oranges to reduce the probability of these diseases. But note that you should not eat more than 4 a day, otherwise you may experience what traditional Chinese medicine calls "internal heat," such as canker sores.

2. Pear
Pears are a fruit that makes people vibrant and full of energy. They are rich in water, vitamins A, B, C, D, E, and trace elements like iodine. They help maintain the health of cell tissues, assist organs in detoxifying and purifying, and soften blood vessels, promoting blood to transport more calcium to the bones. However, you must chew pears slowly and thoroughly for better absorption.
3. Banana
Eating bananas can help people who are emotionally fragile and sentimental to dispel pessimistic and irritable moods, maintaining a calm and happy state of mind.
This is mainly because it increases the level of serotonin, a substance in the brain that brings pleasure. Research has found that the serotonin level in the brains of patients with depression is lower than that of normal people.
4. Strawberry
Eating strawberries can cultivate patience, because it is a low-growing herbaceous plant and is easily contaminated during its growth process. Therefore, it requires patient washing before eating: first remove the leaves, rinse under running water, then soak in salt water for 5-10 minutes, and finally soak in cool boiled water for 1-2 minutes. After that, you can eat this nutritious "living vitamin pill."

5. Cherry
Cherries are very high in iron content, making them a particularly suitable fruit for women, with the effect of nourishing deficiency and enriching blood. American researchers have also found that eating cherries can significantly reduce the feeling of pain. In the dry winter, bad breath can easily occur. Squeezing cherry juice, diluting it with water, and gargling can help you eliminate this problem.
6. Grape
Grapes are especially suitable for "lazy" people to eat, because the healthiest way to eat them is "without peeling or spitting seeds." The grape skin and seeds are more nutritious than the grape pulp. The reason why red wine has better health benefits than white wine is that it is fermented with the skins. Researchers from the University of Bordeaux in France have also found that OPC, a substance rich in grapes that enhances immunity and delays aging, is absorbed and utilized by the human body by 85% after entering it.
