The human body is made up of different systems that work closely together. Every one of them has a unique function, and the vital system that acts as a line of defense against invaders, such as viruses, bacteria and foreign bodies is called the Immune System.
In this article we will discuss about:
So how does the Immune System work?
The immune system is made up of special organs, cells and chemicals that fight infection (microbes). The main parts of the immune system are: white blood cells, antibodies, the complement system, the lymphatic system, the spleen, the thymus, and the bone marrow. These are the parts of your immune system that actively fight infection. The immune system keeps a record of every germ (microbe) it has ever defeated so it can recognize and destroy the microbe quickly if it enters the body again. Any abnormalities of the immune system can lead to allergic diseases, immuno-deficiencies and autoimmune disorders.
Here are 4 easy ways to strengthen your Immune System
1. Vitamins and Minerals
Vitamins B, C and D, as well as zinc may be helpful in boosting your immune system and fighting the illness in the same way they can help you get over a cold or flu. But there are so many brands of vitamins and minerals out there. Which one should I choose? Follow this detailed guide in choosing the right vitamin and mineral supplement for you.
2. Sleep
Recent media reports say sleep boosts immunity. They point to studies that suggest than even a single good night’s sleep can help activate immune responses to fight off specific pathogens. They’re talking about the body’s second line of defense, which doctors call the adaptive immune system, designed to attack specific pathogens such as flu or cold.
3. Stress Free
“In addition to the physical toll of COVID-19, the pandemic has an equally troubling mental health component, causing anxiety and depression, among many other related problems. Emotional stressors like these can affect a person’s immune system, impairing their ability to ward off infections,” said lead author Annelise Madison, a researcher at The Ohio State University, in a press release.
4. Exercise
Exercise is especially important now because it can reduce stress, prevent weight gain, boost the immune system, and improve sleep. However, some people do not have the luxury of time, and space conducive for physical activities such as exercise.
We have found a viable solution to address this.

What is Whole Body Vibration?
Whole Body Vibration is a mechanical stimulus characterized by oscillatory motion delivered to the entire body from a platform. Simply put, these are vibrations of any frequency transferred to the entire body by motion.
How does it work?
With whole-body vibration, you stand, sit or lie on a machine with a vibrating platform. As the machine vibrates, it transmits energy to your body, forcing your muscles to contract and relax dozens of times each second. The activity may cause you to feel as if you’re exerting yourself. Some research does show that whole-body vibration may help improve muscle strength and that it may help with weight loss when you also cut back on calories.

Advocates say that as little as 15 minutes a day of whole-body vibration three times a week may aid weight loss, burn fat, improve flexibility, enhance blood flow, reduce muscle soreness after exercise, build strength and decrease the stress hormone – Cortisol.
