The immune system is the patron saint of human health, with disease
prevention and disease resistance function. Immune function by various
factors, a dynamic change. Health care, the need to maintain good
immune function.
First, genetic effects. Modern medical research shows that almost all
diseases have a genetic background. However, caused directly by
genetic immune disease is extremely rare for these patients to
premature death usually in infancy. Genetic effects on immunity,
mainly of the disease in susceptible and non-susceptible areas. For
example, influenza is the bane of Europe's big, white is not only well
within the susceptible and vulnerable even black and yellow: yellow
susceptible to hepatitis B; these are the dictates of genetic factors
affecting immune function. Second, age effects, immune function,
development and decline process. From infancy to adolescence, is
immune from the imperfect to the perfect development period, to
adolescence, the immune function of peak decreased gradually after
middle age. Into old age and the specific cellular immune immune
function decline. It is this physiological changes, children and the
elderly are susceptible disease, particularly prone to recurrent upper
respiratory tract infections, viral infections and asthma. Third, the
disease affects. Trauma, burns, immune, are most afraid of infection,
known, cancer, leukemia and hepatitis, but also the patient's immune
function, especially cellular immune function. In the human body,
cellular and humoral immune different. Their own strengths, it is
unable to substitute for each other, can not compensate each other,
relative to each other What would boycott. So the need to maintain
balance. Anti-tumor and anti-virus, tuberculosis, leprosy and other
cells against infection by the cellular immune; and anti-bacterial,
anti-parasitic, and other cells infected by foreign antigens
infection, the most effective is humoral immunity. A protective effect
on the human body immune suppression, immune balance so that
deviation, worse, a typical example is AIDS. In addition,
gastrointestinal bleeding and blood in the stool, can cause loss
caused by the humoral immune antibody decline. Fourth, the impact of
clinical treatment. Radiotherapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy,
antibiotic therapy and immunosuppressive therapy, generally suppress
immune function, which lead to serious complications of infection.
Dual nature of surgical treatment, trauma, blood loss, decreased
immune function, if the surgical resection of the tumor, because
lifting the inhibition of immune function recovery after surgery were
likely to rise. Fifth, nutritional impact, long-term malnutrition,
immune function, especially lower immunity against infection, is the
war-torn areas of some developing countries and some deer major cause
of death. Adequate nutrition, balanced nutrition to maintain good
overall immune function of the necessary conditions. In addition to
proteins, nucleic acids and carbohydrates of these nutrients, the
vitamins and metallic elements, no trace of is also not lacking. Six
is the spiritual factors. As the saying goes "laughter therapy fits
all" disease prevention mental factors in the role of resistance more
and more attention. Mental factors in the immune system is linked with
the disease, the main bridge. Study found that a happy, cheerful,
open-minded to promote immune function; tension, sadness, loneliness,
depression, is detrimental to immune function. A new discipline in
recent years - the spirit of endocrine immunology, is the spirit of
factors suggest ways of immune function. In addition, exercise good
immune function, healthy; environmental pollution, such as car
exhaust, the smell of interior decoration, all with negative immune
factors.
Many factors in this, how people care for their immune function?
Healthy young adults, generally have good immune function. Scientific
way of life, maintain good eating habits, attention to nutritional
balance, doing physical exercise, maintain an optimistic attitude, no
need for special care deliberately. However, illness, fatigue or
setbacks suffered an accident, is another matter. The result of
genetic, physiological, disease or treatment resulted in
immunocompromised people, under the guidance of doctors, according to
their specific circumstances, necessary Sibu, drugs make or
appropriate immunotherapy, disease prevention, improve their health
status, no doubt wise health investment.
