"Boosting Vaccine Effectiveness: The Power of Exercise, Diet, and Mood"

TL;DR Summary
Research suggests that various lifestyle factors, such as mood, sleep, diet, exercise, and social interactions, can affect the efficacy of vaccines, including flu shots and COVID-19 jabs. Positive mood, adequate sleep, a healthy diet, regular exercise, and strong social connections have been associated with better antibody response to vaccines. Factors like age and genetics also play a role in vaccine response. While the exact mechanisms are not fully understood, these lifestyle factors can potentially enhance the immune system's ability to fight diseases and improve vaccine efficacy.
