Boost Your Immune Health
Why do you need to boost your immune system? Because malnourished immune cells become
weak, inefficient and powerless to defend you from the onslaught of viruses, bacteria, free radicals, oxidative stress, diseases etc...Because your body's best natural defense against diseases is your immune system.
Maintaining and boosting your immune system definitely translate into a longer and
better quality of life. Lets say there is a flu bug going around. Why do some people catch it and others don't? How come some recover faster than others? Do you wonder how they have a healthier more active immune system ie they have better resistance than you?
Every disease be it major or minor reflects the defeat of the immune system. We don't see the defense system at work and therefore probably forgotten its needs. Being the first line of defense it is common sense that we want to maintain an optimal system.
Exercise, rest, mental attitude and optimal nutrition are the basic factors to building and maintaining a super immune system.
But to benefit most we will learn in the following pages what make up the immune system, how it works, what will weaken it, the
nutrients it needs, how we can improve and enhance our immunity and how to work with it for
optimal health.
Even when you are faced with immune-related diseases, you will discover the amazing power you have to
boost your immune system.

Oxygen is essential for life yet it is also

Oxygen is required in the normal metabolism within the cell to create energy
(called oxidation) and in the process active free oxygen radicals are
created. We produce free radicals with every breath we take. |
