The function of the immune system is to protect the body against the intrusion of foreign objects, for example – germs, viruses, allergenic, and even inside enemies such as cancer cells. |
The immune system is designed to work like a well oiled machine, with a few branches – such as while cells – lymphocytes, antibodies, different proteins. On all of this a specific white cell is in charge – CD4 – which is in charge of the functions for the immune system. |
When a foreign object enters our body, which is identified by the immune system as a threat, it is attacked by special phagocytes, and another part of the immune system produces antibodies against the enemy, which gets entered into the immune memory – and this is how we immune and prepare ourselves for the next attack. |
While the materials are released, more white blood cells are recruited – this process is called infection. |

The Immune System’s Malfunctions |
The immune system can react too powerfully, or too weakly. |
- A too powerful reaction – is the allergic reaction. It is an unexpected, unwanted reaction of the immune system to daily factors, which are harmless and even beneficial that should not arouse any reaction. It is an over-sensitivity of the immune system.
- About 12-25% of the population tends to suffer from allergy and it is clearly hereditary.
|
 |
The connection of the allergens to the antibodies on the surface of the mast cell causes histamine and other agents to be released, which cause increased mucous secretion, blood vessels expansion, contraction of respiratory ways, and Itchiness and rash – the symptoms of the allergic reaction. |

A too weak reaction – weakens our body’s ability to face the different diseases and increases the need for medication. |
The causes of the immune system malfunction |
- Hereditary – birth defects
- Unbalanced, synthetic and industrial diet
- Our daily stress and anxiety situations
- Lack of satisfactory sleep
- Extended use of antibiotics
- Environmental pollution such as – air pollution, sprayed substances, passive smoking
- Smoking
- Exposure to radiation – Microwave, cell phone etc.
|
Illnesses attributed to the immune system malfunction |
Allergy, asthma, ear, throat and eye infections, bronchitis, pneumonia, add, cancer end more… |
Strengthening of the Immune System |
|
- Healthy, balanced diet, which includes drinking a lot of water.
- Complementary Antioxidants
- Complementary vitamins and minerals
- Supervised physical activity
- Peace of mind, optimistic view, happiness, love, a sense of humour, satisfaction, living in the moment…
- A quiet night sleep, 7-8 hours, will rejuvenate and rebuild the immune system.
|
We are discussing a way of life that holds all the aspects of our life. If we choose it – our situation will improve and our immune system could also rehabilitate. The more we adopt these parameters, the better the situation will become. This is the basis that is important to keep. |
However, since our daily race continues and there is no doubt that we can rehabilitate our immune system entirely on our own. It is also recommended to turn to other elements that help rehabilitate out immune system and other bodily systems. |
Aids for the Rehabilitation of the Immune System |
- Antioxidants such as Vitamin C, Echinacea, & Propolis are your body’s protection against harmful free radicals. Therefore, they are your protection from aging, sickness or infectious disease.
- Adaptogenic products– products such as Ginseng (Eleuthero), with the qualities that enable to move from stimuli to relaxation of the different bodily functions – according to the body’s needs. They balance and normalize the physical and mental function of the body and help it adjust and cope with daily situations that would have hurt its function without it.
|
Adaptogenic plants affect the adrenal gland and improve the adrenal reaction to continuous stress situation.
stress situation – physical and mental – cause the exhaustion and wear of the adrenal gland, which causes a decrease in the body’s natural resistance, and is followed by its malfunctions = disease. |
