Immune Health

The immune system is commonly assumed to respond to pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. Nowadays, it also has to interfere with environmental factors, like air pollution, chemicals, pollen, UV light, mental stress, and foods allergies. The consequence is an over-stimulation of the immune system, triggering inflammation and allergies or even autoimmunity. Knowing a risk factor is around like fine particle pollution or currently “Covid19”, causes fear and mental stress, leading to an extra challenge faced by the immune system. This means the body does not only counteract directly to the pathogen, but also needs to buffer elevated stress symptoms like anxiety, GI discomfort, bronchial cough or cramps. The immune system can be supported by natural exposure levels to bacteria, healthy lifestyle or a healthy diet.
