At the Center for Holistic Health, I make sure that your cell-mediated immune system is working properly. I do this by way of a nutritional check-up. In other words, I test to see if your diet is stimulating any inappropriate antibody (allergic) reactions which might be putting your immune system at risk.
Additionally, I use specialized reflex muscle testing to see if your body has an allergic reaction to any of its own immune cells. If it does, there are ways to re-program your body so it will stop suppressing your immune system.
I can also help to enhance your immunity by assisting it in cleaning up your digestive system. Through drainage therapy, nutritional supplements, kinesiological therapeutics, and a good body-type specific nutritional diet, I can help ensure that good digestion takes place in your body and that there are no ailments such as leaky gut. (I’ll explain more about leaky gut in the next segment.) Of course, these are just a few of the techniques that can help one maintain an optimum cell-mediated immune system, which is the body’s preferred response.
Here is a wonderful 8 Step Self-Care Program that is specifically designed for enhancing your body’s immune system.
1. Follow a regular exercise plan. To have a healthy immune system, waste products must constantly be moved out of your cells through the lymphatic system. The most effective way to circulate lymphatic fluid is through aerobic exercise. In this type of exertion, the energy is clean burning and moves the toxins and impurities out of the body without creating additional impurities.
2. Consume enough antioxidants. Anti-oxidants work to neutralize pollution and other impurities so that your cell-mediated immunity doesn’t have to work so hard. Look for foods and supplements that contain an ample supply of vitamins A, C, E, carotinoids, selenium, zinc, cysteine (an amino acid), and glutathione.
Well, these just the first few steps in the 8 Step Self-Care Program. I’ll have more for you in my next blog segment. In the meantime, if you feel that you would like to chat with me about your health, then please give me a call at (510) 652-2302. We can talk about the ways in which I can help you to boost your immune system.
