NUTRITION THERAPY IMPROVES IMMUNE FUNCTIONS
WHAT'S AHEAD?
Your immune system consists of 20 trillion specialized "warrior" cells in your body that are responsible for killing lethal invaders, such as cancer, yeast, bacteria, and virus. Breakdown in the immune system is at least partly responsible for cancer taking over a human body. There are many ways to get your immune system working:
> protein, calories, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, food extracts, fatty acids, and other nutrition components feed the immune system
> certain nutrition factors, such as enzymes, colostrum, cartilage, and medicinal mushrooms can help your immune system better recognize the cancer
> toxins and stress shut down the immune system
> sugar slows the immune system to a crawl

Imagine being a special forces cop in downtown New York City. There are millions of people of all different sizes, shapes, colors, languages, manner of dress, and movement. Most are good people. Some are bad people. Some are terrorists with very evil intentions. Your job is to find the bad guys and get rid of them. No easy chore. That is what your immune system is trying to do in your body: recognize self from non-self. Good guys from bad guys. Workers from traitors. You have trillions of cells in your body of many different sizes, shapes, and various functions. Most are cooperative cells. Some are defective cells. A few are cancerous and could take over the body. Your immune system’s job is to eliminate cancer.
