Immunization: Fill & Download for Free

Fortunately, you can’t do anything to strengthen your immune system. If you did, you’d be in trouble, and you would probably die sooner.Human beings naturally have an overactive immune system. Overactive immune systems cause autoimmune diseases like arthritis, lead to allergies, and cause constant low-grade inflammation that results in heart disease. Things like low-dose aspirin therapy help prevent heart disease by suppressing immune response.For almost all of human history, nearly every person on earth has lived with parasites. Parasites often secrete chemicals that suppress immune response. As a result, human beings evolved to have immune systems that run too hot.If there was a way for you to boost your immune system, you would probably give yourself allergies, hay fever, arthritis, lupus, vasculitis, celiac disease (gluten sensitivity is caused by an overactive immune response), and other health problems.That’s why it’s a good thing that all the foods, supplements, herbs, and fad diets that say they “boost the immune system” are pure quackery sold by con artists to gullible people who don’t know anything about biology. If those things boosted your immune system for real, the people who used them would be completely buggered.

Don’t hold your breath. “Herd immunity” is a term currently being used by people who know nothing about it. This is herd immunity:The majority of the population needs to be immune to a disease in order for herd immunity to have an effect. That means nearly everyone gets vaccinated or nearly everyone gets the disease and becomes immune. We don’t know how long coronavirus immunity even lasts and we have no vaccine. We don’t have anything more than modestly effective treatments.By wishing for herd immunity to kick in you are wishing that most people will get sick. Some of those people will die.I hate sheltering in place, I want it to be over, but right now it’s our best weapon. We’re all in this together.

A vaccine does fortify the immune system. That’s how vaccines work. That’s what they do: they train the immune system to recognize the virus, in order to create a natural immune response.You never, ever, ever, ever want to “boost” the immune system indiscriminately. That would kill the patient.It’s a good thing that every single so-called “immune booster” on the market is a fraud and a scam, because if you boost the immune system without training it to attack a specific target, you end up with autoimmune disease and allergies.Allergies and autoimmune diseases like lupus, type 1 diabetes, thyroiditis, Crohn’s disease, aplastic anemia, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and Vasculitis, among others, are caused by an overactive immune system. Boosting the immune system is incredibly dangerous and likely to lead to a long, agonizing death.
