Health and healthy lifestyles

On Wednesday, October 28, our school was visited by guest lecturers Dr. Katarina Boričić, nurse Zorka Zeba from the Institute “Milan Jovanović-Batut” and Snežana Šilkić from Community health centre “Simo Milošević”.Dr. Katarina Boričić gave a lecture on “Health and healthy lifestyles” for Grade 6 students and the second and third year students of high school.At a time when the entire planet is struggling with the Corona virus pandemic, in addition to hygienic measures and avoiding social contacts, an adequate immune system response also plays an important role.We have learned that the first line of defense to fight the virus is strong immunity. Therefore, it is important to take in as many vitamins and minerals as possible from fruits and vegetables, as well as vitamin D and zinc. However, the effect of stress, sleep and moderate physical activity on the immune system should not be neglected.
