The immune system is an intricate network of organs, cells, proteins, and tissues that operates as the body\u2019s natural defence system against microbes (foreign invaders). This system consists of two main parts, the&nbsp;<\/span><i><span>innate<\/span><\/i><span>&nbsp;(non-specific) immune system and the&nbsp;<\/span><i><span>adaptive<\/span><\/i><span>&nbsp;(specific) immune system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The innate immune system is the immune system that you are born with, which includes external barriers such as the skin and mucous membranes of the gut and throat. The adaptive immune system develops when the body is exposed to viruses and diseases.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Even though the immune system\u2019s primary purpose is to protect the body against various bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungus, it sometimes requires some encouragement to reach its full potential. Effective ways to boost the immune system are eating nutrient-rich foods, getting enough sleep, exercising, and strengthening with specific vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>SUPER IMMUNE<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span>This super immune-boosting formulation has 1000 milligrams of Vitamin C to boost your immune system in the winter and help your body fight infection.&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/usn.co.za\/product\/super-immune-powder\/\"><span>Super Immune<\/span><\/a><span>&nbsp;is also full of antioxidants and alkalising minerals that help to balance the body\u2019s pH levels.

Giving your body enough time to rest and recover is crucial for your immune system to function optimally. When you sleep, the body produces a protein known as cytokines that target inflammation and infection. The body also produces T-cells\u2014white blood cells that play a crucial role in the body\u2019s immune response to infections\u2014when sleeping.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>APPLE CIDER VINEGAR<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span>Apple cider vinegar is made from fermented apples.
