Our immune system is responsible for protecting us from disease by locating and destroying pathogens and tumor cells within our bodies. Our immune systems can identify a wide variety of dangerous agents in our bodies, from viruses to dangerous bacteria, and needs to distinguish these dangerous elements from our own healthy tissues and cells.
Disorders of the immune system do exist and can result in various diseases. Immunodeficiency disease exists when the immune system is too weak to battle off infections within our body.
It is important to strengthen our immune system because it is our bodys defense system from the dangerous pathogens and diseases of the outside world. |
