Introduction:
- The Immune system is composed of the lymphatics, lymph nodes, thymus
and white blood cells - The friendly (normal) flora of the colon are part of the immune system
since they protect the bowel against yeast infections - At it’s most basic level, the immune system enables the body to recognize
what belongs in the body and what does not and remove what shouldn’t be
present - Modern research has demonstrated that a person’s attitude impacts the
immune system, as does good nutrition - Fatigue and stress may have a vast effect on this system.
- Antibiotics may kill the normal flora and therefore probiotics should be
taken after a course of antibiotics - Although antioxidants are not part of the immune system, ingestion of foods
with antioxidants such as vitamins A, C, E and the mineral selenium have a
profound effect on the body’s ability to protect against oxidative damage. - Concerns with the immune system are infection (bacteria, virus, fungus),
autoimmune disorders, oxidative stress, cancer, lymphatic congestion,
lowered resistance.
Lifestyle Suggestions to support the Immune System:
- Manage stress
- Eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables
- Eat adequate complete proteins
- Avoid simple sugars such as table sugar and white flour (most bakery goods)
- Get adequate sleep and exercise
