Weak immune system

Homeopathic consultant well versed with Weak immune system

 

Weak immune system refers to an underactive and poor performing immune system. The immune system’s prime function is to protect the body against infection and the development of cancer. Support and enhancement of the immune system is perhaps the most important step in achieving resistance to disease and reducing susceptibility to colds, flus, and cancer. Supporting the immune system involves a health-promoting lifestyle, stress management, exercise, diet, and the appropriate use of nutritional supplements and herbal medicines.

If you answer “yes” to any of the following questions, it is a sign that your immune system needs support:

 

• Do you catch colds easily?
• Do you get more than two colds a year?
• Are you suffering chronic infection?
• Do you get frequent cold sores or have genital herpes?
• Are your lymph glands sore and swollen at times?
• Do you have now or have you ever had cancer?

Recurrent or chronic infections-even very mild colds-only occur when the immune system is weakened. Under such circumstances, there is a repetitive cycle that makes it difficult to overcome the tendency toward infection: a weakened immune system leads to infection, infection causes damage to the immune system, which further weakens resistance. Enhancing the immune system can provide the answer to breaking the cycle.
