The Incredible Human Immune System
Immune System Basics
Your immune system can be affected by many things just as other systems in your body. Bacteria, pollutants, parasites, emotional problems and improper diet can cause your immune system to be out of balance. A weak immune system will allow the invaders to get the upper hand and cause sickness. Many people think that strengthening the immune system is the answer to a healthy life, the stronger the better. This is not always the case such as when a person has allergies. Here, the immune system is over-reacting to common invaders that it should normally ignore such as pollen or animal dander. An overactive immune system is also typified by inflammatory responses. An immune system that is too sensitive is thought to indirectly lead to not only allergies but also MS, fibromyalgia, lupus, arthirits, Crohn's disease and diabetes. Many treatments for allergies weaken the immune system which in turn now leaves a person more suseptible to illness. Obviously the key here is to have an immune system that is not too weak and not too strong. A balanced immune system! A way to have a balanced immune system is to supplement with natural immune system regulators. The supplement that I take, immune26 by Legacy for Life, is one such regulator. Are there others?

- Immunoglobins
- Is it called immunoglobulins or immunoglobins? Here is a site that uses the term immunoglobin. They look like they are one in the same. I have an email out to an expert to try to clear this up. Currently my thoughts are that immunoglobin is an American spelling and immunoglobulin is a British spelling. Comments are welcome.
- A good parts list.
- This site has a nice but brief list of major parts of the immune system.
