Nutritional Impact on Immune Function

High simple sugar consumption significantly suppresses immune system efficiency.
Immediate impairment occurs because glucose and fructose compete with vitamin C for cellular uptake by white blood cells, such as phagocytes.
Reduced phagocytosis means immune cells become less effective at engulfing and destroying bacteria and viruses.
Duration of suppression typically begins within minutes of ingestion and can last for several hours, leaving the body temporarily vulnerable.
Chronic intake of refined sugars promotes systemic inflammation, alters the gut microbiome balance, and further compromises overall immune defense mechanisms.
