Immune system function is to neutralize or remove pathogens like bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi that enter the body. The primary function of the immune system is to develop a shield of biological structures and processes within an organism that protects the various diseases.

💥The Importance of a Strong Immune System
The Immune System is the human defense system. It is a complex network throughout the body and consists, among other things, of special cells (such as lymphocytes, granulocytes, macrophages), antibodies, lymph nodes and organs such as the spleen and thymus. A functioning immune system depends on many factors. Micronutrients play an important role as essential co-factors.

💥How to Boost the Immune System
The Immune System is designed to fight off infection and disease. It has a number of ways to detect and destroy anything it recognizes as foreign to your body, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites or unhealthy cells such as cancer cells.
Viruses need the cell machinery in order to produce their own proteins. They are intracellular parasites that can only replicate inside cells. The most effective mechanisms of the innate response against viral infections are mediated by interferon and by the activation of natural killer (NK) cells.
The strength of the Immune System varies from person to person and, what’s more, from day to day because its ability to fight off infection fluctuates depending on many factors.
Here are a couple of things you can do too
Reduce Stress
Stress negatively impacts the production of lymphocytes — the white blood cells that are the body’s first line of defense against infection — putting you at risk of viral disease.
Get enough Sleep
Studies show that people who don’t get quality sleep or enough sleep are more likely to get sick after being exposed to a virus.Â
Don’t smoke: tobacco has several negative effects
Smoking harms the immune system and can make the body less successful at fighting disease. The immune system is the body's way of protecting itself from infection and disease; it works to fight everything from cold and flu viruses to serious conditions such as cancer.
Eat a balanced Diet including Fruits and Vegetables
Nutrient deficiencies weaken the immune response.
Exercise but don’t go overboard
Exercise promotes cardiovascular health, lowers blood pressure, helps control body weight, and offers protection against diseases and allowing immune system cells to move through the body more freely and do their job more effectively.
Fall in Love
Researchers have shown that love offers a lot of specific, tangible health benefits, such as lower blood pressure, reduced anxiety, improved immunity, less pain, and longer life.
