Did you know that the only system that, if damaged or weak, will ruin your entire life is the immune system? If it is deteriorating or weak, it will be an excellent refuge and a suitable living space for all microbes, such as bacteria, parasites, germs, and viruses, to grow in it and flourish, and then destroy the remaining organs of your body.
Therefore, we must appreciate the importance of the immune system, as it is the protective shield and fortress for your body and all your organs.
Before we discuss how to support our immune system, let us learn about some of its components:
1-One of the most important and first things a microbe encounters .when it enters the body is human skin, as it is the protector and serves as a fortress or fortress for that empire (your body). Therefore, the health of your skin is like strengthening the strength of your
immune system to prevent the entry of microbes.
2-The tonsils on both sides of the throat, stomach acid, spots called Peyer’s spots in the intestines, and the appendix also in the intestines all have the function of protecting the immune system from any microbes that enter with food.
3-The lymphatic system is part of the great immune system. The lymphatic system consists of the spleen, lymph nodes, and lymph vessels that contain white blood cells of all types and their killing capabilities - killing microbes - in addition to some substances secreted by those white blood cells that serve as weapons.
After we get to know the components of the immune system smoothly without scientific complexity, let us delve into the events of the battle that the immune system fights daily to kill microbes in a very simplified form, and I will not be long for you.
First: The skin and the components we mentioned, such as tonsils, Peyer’s spots, and stomach acid, prevent the microbe from entering the body’s tissues, and this represents the first line of defense.
Second: If the first line of defense fails to resist the microbe’s entry into the blood and tissues, the second line of defense becomes active, as the white blood cells begin an intense fight between themselves and the microbe, and they often win over it if the person is healthy and the microbe is weak.
Third: If the second line of defense fails, the third line of defense begins an epic battle, where some types of white blood cells (the elite leaders) become active. Some of them secrete substances that paralyze the microbe, making it easier to eliminate, and some of them secrete toxins that kill the microbe.
As a result of this epic battle, some infections and fevers result as a natural response from the immune system as it begins to enter the recovery phase.
Therefore, to strengthen and strengthen our immune system, here are some steps and strategies to strengthen this great army:
1-Sports play a major role in the health of your immune system, so you should go to the gym at least 3 times a week.
2- Proper nutrition: You must take a sufficient amount of minerals, vitamins, proteins, and healthy fats daily.

3- Get enough sleep, as sleep renews the body’s cells so that they become more powerful so they can begin their new day to confront and defeat their enemies. According to studies, an adult needs 7-9 daily hours of sleep at night, so take care of your sleep, as it is an integral part of your well-being.
4- Take care of your hygiene, because not taking care of your hygiene, such as bathing, biting your nails, and washing your hands, will make your body a refuge for bacteria and germs, which will pose a constant threat to your body and immune system, so pay attention to your hygiene.
5- Abstain from bad habits such as smoking and alcohol, as they destroy the mechanisms of your immune system, making it weak and useless, so abstain for the sake of your health and for the sake of your immune system.
