Did you know that the body does not have an immune SYSTEM as much as it IS an immune system?? Do you know what it consists of?? It is not a system at all; like the skeletal system or respiratory system. It is more like an immune alliance among various systems and organs which when they are coordinated by the brain, give an immune response to the presence of disease, such as bacteria and viruses. It is composed of the thymus (endocrine) for lymphocytes, spleen (lymphatic, blood) for antibodies, long bones (skeletal) marrow-blood, stomach (digestive system, HCl), intestinal flora (digestive) to destroy pathogenic microbes and the mfr. B12 and liver for detoxification and enzyme production. This is why it is CRUCIAL to support ALL systems, especially when one is fighting a degenerative, neurological disease. Detoxing, cleansing, nourishing and rebuilding is the key. It is a very precise, methodical protocol; like peeling the layers of an onion. When one system is taxed or not functioning to its' fullest, all other systems are affected. How do we get balanced? Start with the basics!
