Everyone has one, we all need it, but most of the time we don’t even know it’s there – that’s a good thing, because it means that it works well. We’re talking about the immune system. It’s only when this inner protective shield doesn’t function properly that we realise how important it really is.
The good thing about it – we are all able to strengthen our immune system and defend ourselves against pathogens that cause illness. A strong immune system can recognise intruders such as bacteria and viruses at an early stage and generate antibodies that then fight the pathogens.
