Your Immune System Keeps You Healthy
Your Immune System Keeps You Healthy
Your immune system is what keeps you healthy. Your immune system is made up of a complex and vital network of cells and organs that protect your body from infection and disease. Except for your nervous system, it is the most complicated of your biological systems. Understanding that this sensitive system is enhanced by good nutrition, sleep and rest, but impaired by junk food, drugs, and stress is vital.
All your cells, including your immune cells, are produced in your bone marrow. Some of your cells become lymphocytes, which is your infection-fighting white blood cell (WBC). While others become part of another type of immune cell called phagocytes, or engulfing cells. Each fights infection differently, but their mission is the same-to protect your body from disease as quickly as possible.
The largest immune organ in your body is your gastrointestinal (GI) system. It represents almost eighty percent of your entire immune system. That is why it is critical for the environment of your intestines to be balanced with the correct amounts of microorganisms to perform properly. When yeast and bacteria live symbiotically, all is well. If these microorganisms become imbalanced, a state of “dysbiosis” exits, meaning, digestion is out of sync and something needs to be done to restore it to good health. If probiotics and natural anti-fungal remedies are not taken to restore balance, yeast will multiply rapidly.
Yeasts, in moderate amounts, can live harmoniously with you. Not calling attention to themselves as long as normal checks and balances are in place. Not too much harm is done to you, the host.
However, this amazing little organism actually has the ability to change its own DNA and identity! In the twinkling of an eye, it can change both its physiology and anatomy and become a fungus! From then on, it can continue to keep changing in order to hide or elude your immune system’s attempts to kill it. In the end, it can even revert to being a yeast!
As a yeast, it lives on top of tissue, consuming and recycling only dead tissue. It cannot invade deeper tissues, so it contents itself by manifesting as occasional pesky local conditions, such as vaginitis, thrush, nail fungus, “jock itch,” dandruff, and ring worm. As long as your immune system keeps you healthy and remains strong, yeast is unable to penetrate deeper tissue or get into your bloodstream where it can wreak havoc.
Once it mutates into a fungus it is called mycosis (mycoses are any diseases caused by a fungus). Candida then becomes candidiasis. This is a disease because its fungal stage is an infection. Infection is disease. The infectious yeast/beast starts consuming and recycling LIVE tissue.
THAT MEANS YOU!
In this stage, it becomes insatiably hungry and begins to break out of its normal territory in search of food. It grows tentacles which enable it to break the barrier that was once impassable by yeast. These tentacles begin to break down and eat through your cell walls. When your cell walls are weakened and damaged, fungi easily enter your cells themselves. Some of your cells are consumed for food, and others either die or survive crippled.
The arrangement between yeast and your body now has been broken. The yeast/fungus has learned how to attack and enter your body. You could say it has developed an “attitude.” It sinks its evil tentacles deep into your tissue, and when it hits your bloodstream, it goes berserk. It seems that once it has a taste of your blood, it wants more and more and more, like a vampire, and goes on a wild feeding frenzy.
Your bloodstream is the “highway” to every cell in your body. Infiltration into your bloodstream is the turning point for your immune system. All your organs and glands, all your tissues are fair game, and all bets are off.
Now yeast/fungus has access to your entire body, and like a kid in a candy store, it wants everything it sees.
With the fungi’s new tentacles, the once peaceful parasite can poke holes through all the mucosal linings of your body, especially your digestive tract, on its way to your blood.
Once your immune systems defense has been penetrated by invading yeast, your lining is punctured and weakened by its fungal tentacles. Yeast spores and their poisons slip through the holes into your bloodstream and start spreading to cells and organs. Immediately they start to disarm and depress your immune system. Some even reach your brain!
And so a new disease has been born, called “leaky gut syndrome“.
The first organ to be invaded usually is your liver-your primary organ of detoxification. From there yeast spreads easily throughout your body to your heart, lungs, and other organs and glands.
Anyone who suffers from allergies and allergic reactions knows what happens next in this battle. Hay fever, eczema, dizziness, fatigue, anxiety, and muscle aches are only some of the miseries commonly experienced.
In the beginning you may react only to the yeast inside your body. But, as your immune system deteriorates you may begin to react to outside yeasts, such as those found in antibiotics, bread, beer or wine, or to fungus foods, such as blue cheeses, mushrooms, etc. Molds and mildews in the bathroom, old buildings, or damp basements are infamous for stimulating allergic responses.
As the infection becomes more widely dispersed, you may start to experience reactions to a wider variety of foods. Now, allergies to the environment, such as chemical and gasoline fumes, perfume, out gassing from carpeting, etc., begin to raise their ugly heads.
You feel bad all over.
Your battered immune system has to work harder and harder to deal with the ever increasing populations of yeast. It literally becomes crippled and is prevented from doing its job.
With your immune system down, your body is vulnerable to any and all disease.
On a side note, this is exactly what happens with AIDS. AIDS means Acquired Immune System Deficiency Syndrome. Sperm is seen as a foreign object so it automatically manufactures antibodies to combat the sperm. This over stimulation tires the immune system, thereby making the host vulnerable to overgrowths of fungi and opportunistic viruses. The immune system simply cannot keep up with the demand. It becomes deficient.
The weakened immune system slowly grinds to a halt. It has fought a good fight. In defeat, it waves a white flag. In victory, the invasion of yeasts, fungi and their toxins joyously break ranks and overrun their won territory.
How do you fight back and keep your immune system healthy from the yeast/beast? My ProBio5 provides 5 strains of probiotic bacteria and contains enzymes to aid in the breakdown of proteins and fibrous foods during digestion, contributing to your balanced intestinal system. ProBio5 provides proper intestinal balance which increases nutrient absorption. ProBio5 was specifically designed to encourage balance in your body through your intestinal tract. ProBio5 helps replenish your internal flora to its proper state of balance in your body, which may create an intestinal system that is less likely to promote the overgrowth of ‘less healthy’ bacteria. ProBio5 provides 5 strains of probiotic bacteria for supporting your immune system. ProBio5 may help inactivate free radicals or free radical-initiated chemical reactions in your body. All of this leads to a happier, healthier you!
