The Managing Director, In-Country Medicare, Abuja, Dr John Tor-Agbidye has said that adequate sleep and vitamin D help in the prevention of seasonal diseases such as catarrh and cough.
Dr Tor-Agbidye said this on Monday while speaking with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), adding that sound sleep strengthens the immune system against viruses and bacteria.
"It is when the immune system is overwhelmed that the body becomes sick with either catarrh or cough.
“People should imbibe a healthy lifestyle that will aid their immune system, such as taking foods that are rich in Vitamin D strengthen the system,” he said.
The medical practitioner also urged people to always consider the health benefits of foods before as many foods eaten today are bereft of necessary nutrients and vitamins
He also advised people to consult their doctor before taking any kind of supplement.
