Immune Support

 
 

What is the immune system? The immune system is the body’s primary defense mechanism against potentially harmful invaders, such as pathogens, antigens, and immunogens. The immune system is made up of various cells, tissues, and substances, including the skin, red and white blood cells, microbiota, antibodies, and cytokines (cell-signaling molecules).

The immune system’s defenses are generally classified as two responses, namely the innate immune response and adaptive immune response. The innate immune response, your first line of defense, is classified as non-specific or generalized since the defensive actions do not differ between offenders. The adaptive immune response is the body’s acquired or learned response to specific pathogens or other compounds that it has previously encountered.
