<p>Our immune system is our natural defence system and is essential to our survival. It protects us from foreign invaders such as bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi, all which have the potential to make us sick.</p>
<h3>How does the immune system work?</h3>
<p>Our immune system has three lines of defence:</p>
<p>The first line of defence includes surface barriers such as our skin and mucous membranes, that prevent pathogens from entering the body. If this first barrier is breached, our second line of defence responds rapidly. This involves non-specific responses of the innate immune system. Our third line of defence is our adaptive immune system which can recognise and remember pathogens we’ve had contact with before and form antibodies.</p>
<h3>Immune system support</h3>
<p>The best thing we can do to support our immune system, is eat a wholefood diet rich in vegetables and fruit and to drink plenty of water. Regular exercise, restful sleep and managing our busy-ness is essential for a robust immune system.</p>
<h3>Supplements for immune health concerns</h3>
<p>Occasionally some key immune nutrients can't be obtained from our everyday diet and a busy lifestyle may mean our immune system needs extra care. Luckily, there are expertly formulated products available to help support your body's defence and immune response:</p>
