Immune support is essential for staying healthy AND for managing chronic conditions effectively. Functional medicine teaches that the focus is on identifying and addressing underlying causes rather than simply masking symptoms. Many chronic diseases are rooted in chronic inflammation and immune system dysfunction. By enhancing immune function, you can reduce inflammation, restoring balance to the body. It’s all about understanding that the immune system doesn’t work in isolation; it interacts with vital systems in the body, like the gut, hormonal, and nervous systems. This interconnectedness means that a well-functioning immune system is crucial for all systems.
