            RAISE YOUR DEFENSES WITH HERBS AND SPICES

            Stimulating our body's defense system

            The immune system is one of the many mechanisms of action within the human body that still amazes scientists and the general public with its potential and efficiency. The immune system involves a complex network of cells and organs that synchronize their responses to protect and defend the body from infections and diseases. This defense system has the ability to remember threats against which it has fought. In addition, it has an advanced communication system that allows it to trigger immediate responses to emergency situations by activating immune cells and recruiting others.

            In modern times, however, the amount of GMO products, herbicide and pesticide residues, radioactivity, and other harmful chemicals in food make it increasingly difficult for that defense system to function effectively.

            For all this, and to achieve a healthy life in a healthy body, it has been shown that we can stimulate our immune system so that it is better prepared and trained through adequate nutrition, sufficient rest, and less stress.
