摘　　要：Immunonutrition is an interdisciplinary field of research that unites knowledge and skills related to clinical nutrition,clinical immunology,infections and inflammation,injury and tissue damage[1].Immunonutrients are glutamine,arginine,taurine,leucine,cysteine,nucleotides,omega 3-polyunsatturated fatty acids(PUFA),vitamins and trace elements.Glutamine and omega 3 PUFA can modulate immune function towards a more balanced immune response,whilst vitamins and trace elements form an antioxidant defense system that protects the body and tissues from deleterious effects of free radicals in oxidative stress[2].Immunonutritionists also study the importance of gut microbiota,because of its bilateral connections to both the nervous and immune system[1].The importance and clinical relevance of immunonutrition is being studied widely in medicine,including in oncology,endocrinology,rheumatology,clinical immunology and allergology.Here,author summarizes available scientific literature on the importance of immunonutrition and its clinical relevance.
