How the Immune System Works
How the Immune System Works
The immune system is your body’s natural defense system. It’s
an intricate network of cells, tissues, and organs that band together
to defend your body against invaders. Those invaders can include
bacteria, viruses, parasites, even a fungus, all with the potential to
make us sick. They are everywhere – in our homes, offices, and
backyards. A healthy immune system protects us by first creating a
barrier that stops those invaders, or antigens, from entering the body.
And if one slips by the barrier, the immune system produces white blood cells,
and other chemicals and proteins that attack and destroy these foreign
substances. They try to find the antigen and get rid of it before it can
reproduce. Failing that, the immune system revs up even more to destroy
the invaders as they multiply.
The immune system can recognize millions of different
antigens. And it can produce what it needs to eradicate nearly all of
them. When it’s working properly, this elaborate defense system can keep
health problems ranging from cancer to the common cold at bay.
When the Immune System Breaks Down
Sometimes the immune system makes a mistake and identifies a substance as being harmful when it’s not – think pollen or pet dander. When the immune system revs up to fight these “invaders,” you have an allergic reaction. would you like to get a device fits in you pocket treat many diseases and pains using full automatic and highly efficient electronic acupuncture treatment GET MEDICOMAT MEDICAL AUTOMAT DEVICE.
