OUR IMMUNE SYSTEM

God-given power within you: Our bodies are constantly under attack, 24 hours a day from infection and toxins. The fact that we survive is due to our immune system-a fascinating network of chemicals and cells that protect our body. We are exposed to a number of invisible microorganisms that cause cold, flu breathing difficulty, skin allergy, and other diseases. A battalion of bacteria is just waiting to dive into our body through. But the scenario is not completely terrifying. Nature has endowed man with a foolproof immune system to combat invisible enemies that could wreck havoc on our health. The main role of the immune system is to keep our body protected from invasion, both by external organisms and also by our own cells. These organisms may cause harm to the fine balance of the human body system and affect our immunity like cancer. All we have to do is restructure our lifestyle and provide a favorable environment for the immune system to function optimally.

Little soldiers who guard our body day and night: the immune system is the body’s inherent mechanism to fight the onslaught of germs. The white blood cells, our little soldiers, track down germs and gobble them up. Sometimes antibodies produced by special cells destroy the germs. Then there the tiny proteins called immunoglobulins and interferon that cells produce to fight virus, bacteria, cells produce to fight virus, bacteria, and other invaders. For further protection, the body is also stocked with the fighter white blood cells known as T-cells, B-cells, and killer cells.
