RE: The Innate Immune System (1/2) - A Zoo of Cells
This is very informative article, thank you for breaking it down so it is more understandable. Do you have any tips on improving immune function through supplementation or any other strategies?
Too many supplements can actually harm your body. A healthy diet, exercise and enough sleep are the best things you can do to help your immune system (+ having the important vaccinations).
There are a few things that can be supplemented if you don't take in enough on natural ways. But those should first be tested by a doctor before you start supplementing!
Vitamin D is often an issue, I take supplements myself. Iron is usually more of a problem for women. Calcium and magnesium can also be taken as supplements.
Vitamin C supplements are usually unnecessary as 1-2 glasses of orange juice a day (for example) are already enough vitamin C.
Have you ever read on the impact gut health can have on your immune system? I think that consuming fermented foods and taking certain supplements that can promote the growth of health bacteria in the gut is definitely worth it to improve the immune system!
Hi @suesa, you know me so I hope you're not suprised that I don't think vaccinations are good for your immune system. I'm not talking about all vaccinations! I'm just affraid that:
But, that said, there are also auto-vaccinations which remind the dendritic cells (correct me please if I'm wrong at any time, I'm here to learn as well) to attack the virus/bacteria/fungi.
Also please read about the benefits and what naturally occurs when children are not vaccinated:
Neil Miller:
When children contract chickenpox, when children contract measles, mumps, rubella, you gainprotective benefits that protect you in later life against cancer. Several studies, multiple studieshave confirmed this time and again. These are really vaccinated against unvaccinated studies.These are studies where they’ve compared populations that had caught these diseases naturally versus populations that never got these diseases. They look at the cancer rates in later life.
JM: Let me stop you there because I think it’s an important point. I don’t know that anyone inthese studies have ventured to guess or speculate on the mechanism. But it would seem to me that when you have a naturally acquired infection, you’re really exercising your immune system quite profoundly in developing authentic immunity, lifelong immunity, which is radically different from the type of artificial immunizations that are done through vaccinations, which is not life long – it rarely ever is – and has relatively decreasing antibodies and actually stimulates a different part of the immune system.
It could potentially increase your risk of cancer rather than decrease it. We see that in many ofthese other vaccines, like human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine.
NM: When you are vaccinated, you are prevented from gaining that lifelong natural protectionagainst cancer. Also, I’ll mention against heart disease.
JM: What’s the mechanism there?
NM: I’ll tell you about several other studies that confirm that the infections – They know that later born children – they’ve known this for years and several studies show this – I don’t show these studies in my book but I mention it in the introduction to the chapter on cancer and natural infections. Several studies have confirmed time and again that later born children are actually more protected against cancer than firstborn children. And again, for the same reason. They are exposed to more infections.
Hello, i'm rather neutral on vaccination. But when people pricking themselves with a rose and caught tetanus, wasn't it a sort of injection ?
