Your immune system is all that stands between you ...
... and the outside world. Without your immune system you wouldn't be "you" -- any bacterium, virus, or other microorganism could simply attach itself to you and "become" you. By extension then, healthy immune function is vital to good health; yet everything from stress and fatigue to pesticides and poor diet as well as many medications and treatments (particularly those for cancer and other serious conditions) are immunosuppressive. They reduce immune power in other words. This book gives readers an overview of the immune system in accessible lay terms. It has some solid suggestions on how to modulate and enhance some aspects of immunity, notably natural killer (NK) cells, which are anti-viral and anti-tumor. As a medical writer/journalist I have, for years, written about various aspects of health and medicine and I feel very strongly that individuals must become involved in their own health. But in order to do this they need information. Accurate, accessible information. This book provides solid scientific research and some pragmatic hints on immunity and how it works.
