Your immune system is your direct link to staying healthy. It’s your ride-or-die partner and bodyguard. Your cells act as a line of soldiers to protect you against disease, and infections and help you stay strong.
We have 2 types of cells!
B cells - create antibodies that attack pathogens, bacteria, and toxins that enter your body.
T cells - Kill infected or cancerous cells
When these cells are compromised, you’ll most likely experience aches and fatigue.
5 Ways The Immune System Be Compromised?
Disease/Unease: Arthritis, Lupus, Diabetes, HIV, Cancer, etc. makes people more prone to getting infections.
Eating too much junk food: All of those cupcakes, chips, canola oil, and fried food are lowering your immune system and not allowing your cells to fight off toxins.
Stress: Stress can weaken the immune system, and when the immune system is weak it causes inflammation in the body that can cause disease.
Medications: The pills, chemo, etc not only masks the issues we experience but it can also give side effects that can cause infections and other organs to have damage.
Age: Over time our immune system becomes weak from the foods we eat, the creams and lotions we use and environmental factors. This can cause more inflammation, and more infections.
Some of the symptoms of a compromised immune system can vary based on what type of illness you're experiencing and the severity. Some of the common ones that come up are:
Frequent Infections: If you're experiencing recurrent or severe infections, such as respiratory infections like pneumonia, or bronchitis, urinary tract infections, skin infections, or gastrointestinal infections you may have a compromised immune system.
Slow Healing: Wounds, cuts, or injuries may take longer to heal if you're experiencing a weakened immune system.
Chronic Fatigue: If you're always tired or feeling sluggish you may have low immunity.
Unexplained Weight Loss: Unexplained weight loss may occur in some people with weakened immune systems. This usual happens when someone is already experiencing and unease.
Increased Susceptibility to Allergies: If you're allergies then it's time to boost your immunity. This is definitely a sign of a low immune system.
