Bolstered immunity - Balance Hormone Clinic

What is bolstered immunity?

A robust and resilient immune system is key to warding off illness and infection. Bolstering immunity refers to supporting and strengthening the body's natural defenses against disease. This can be achieved through healthy lifestyle measures like proper nutrition, exercise, and stress management.

The immune system is an intricate network of cells, tissues, and organs that work together to protect the body. Key components include:

• White blood cells - leukocytes that circulate seeking out and destroying pathogens
• Lymph nodes - bean-shaped glands that filter lymph fluid and house white blood cells
• Spleen - organ that filters blood and contains disease-fighting white blood cells
• Bone marrow - spongy tissue inside bones where white blood cells are made

Immunity can be reinforced both through everyday lifestyle habits and specific interventions like supplements and vaccines.

Bolstering immunity naturally:

• Eat a diet high in fruits, vegetables, lean protein, yogurt and fermented foods. These provide vitamins, minerals and probiotics to optimize immune health.
• Exercise regularly to reduce stress hormones and circulate disease-fighting cells.
• Get enough sleep, which allows the body to repair and regenerate immune cells.
• Take steps to actively manage stress levels with meditation, yoga or journaling. Chronic stress weakens immunity.
