Boosting the Immune System

Updated in 2022. The immune system is more than just a bunch of cells reacting to inflammation. It is the ongoing cooperation of our body's biochemistry and trillions of bacteria and yeasts that are living inside and outside our body - often called our microbiome. Our body's microbiome is at least 10 times larger than that of the cells of our body. This means our colonies of bacteria are powerful and productive players in our immune system. If our microbiome is not up to par, our immune system's ability to respond to infections and diseases is handicapped. Utilizing over 1,000 scientific studies, this book updates our knowledge on how our real immune system works and what we can do to boost it. The text covers numerous strategies including probiotics, herbs, superfoods, diet and lifestyle strategies been proven to increase our immunity and help our bodies fight today's host of pathogens, including COVID-19.
