maybe trying to boost the immune system can be counter-productive and could potentially do more harm than good? It's easy to get too wrapped up in alternative remedies attempting to tip a balance which is better regulated by the wisdom of the body.
An overly active immune system equals inflammation. Auto-immune disorders are associated with this type of immune response. In the pandemic flu 100 years ago the young and healthy had a higher death rate as their strong immune system over responded liquifying lung tissue. It seems every problem always comes back to balance thus keeping it between the lines stands a better chance of keeping you out of the ditch.
counter-weaponized immune system? Not really sure where that brain gas came from. LOL
