What is immunocompetence? ▪ To be immunocompetent simply means that the immune system is working properly and that the body is capable of mounting an appropriate immune response, when necessary. Role NORMAL RESPONSE ABNORMAL RESPONSE ▪ Identification and protection against Overactive e.g. allergy, asthma, eczema etc. Defense pathogenic microorganisms and toxins Deficient: immuno-deficiency ▪ Autoimmune diseases: a case of mistaken Auto- ▪ Recognition of own tissues and identity in which the body's immune tolerance maintaining tolerance system, which ordinarily attacks intruders like viruses and bacteria, attacks itself. Immune ▪ Identifying and removing the damaged, ▪ Tumor generation or frequent infection etc Surveillance old or otherwise changed cells 14 24.06.2020 | BASF Nutrition & Immunity Webinar APAC
Lifestyle factors leading to immuno-compromise during adulthood ▪ The risk of infection is also influenced by gender, early programming, vaccination history, pathogen exposure, specific health conditions, and diseases. 15 24.06.2020 | BASF Nutrition & Immunity Webinar APAC Source: Maggini et al., 2018
Health ingredients have specific functions & strengthen the immune system ▪ Specific micronutrients work together to reduce the risk, duration and severity of infections. These include vitamin A, B6, folate, B12, C, D, E, as well as minerals like zinc, copper, iron, magnesium and selenium.

Vitamin D intake recommendations by scientists ◼ For preventing VD deficiency during lockdown: “400 – 2000 IU of vitamin D3 supplementation could assist in preventing vitamin D deficiency during lockdown, without significant risk for harms” (Alpalhao M et al, 2020) „Vitamin D3 supplementation, daily or weekly, at daily equivalent doses of 1000–4000 IU, is advisable. (…) Both accommodate the anticipated higher needs across the lifespan incurred by lockdown measures, immobilization, and hospitalization.“ (Chakhtoura M et al, 2020) ◼ For increasing VD levels to recommended optimum: “To reduce the risk of infection, it is recommended that people at risk of influenza and/or COVID-19 consider taking 10,000 IU/d of vitamin D3 for a few weeks to rapidly raise 25(OH)D concentrations, followed by 5000 IU/d. The goal should be to raise 25(OH)D concentrations above 40–60 ng/mL (100–150* nmol/L).“(Grant WB et al, 2020; Grant WB et al, 2020). 18 24.06.2020 | BASF Nutrition & Immunity Webinar APAC For comparison: 75 nmol/L are considered optimum for bone health (Int.
