Healthy Cell Concept I

Cell Protection

A major factor in having healthy cells and a healthy life is the condition of the immune system. This system, a miracle inside our bodies, works to keep us well. It fights disease - that is, it fights the viruses, bacteria, fungi, and other microbes that cause disease. When our immune systems are not working very well, we can come down with common illnesses, such as colds, more easily. We also run a greater risk of contracting more serious illnesses and can take a long time to recover from health problems when our immune system is not working properly. It pays, then, to keep the immune system in tip-top shape!

A Brief Introduction

One of the reasons we become ill is because the body's defense system, the immune system, is breached by a pathogen. A pathogen is simply an organism that causes disease. Three examples of pathogens are viruses (colds, AIDS), bacteria (strep throat, pneumonia), and fungi (athlete's foot, candida).

The immune system fights pathogens by first refusing them entry into the body. The skin and mucous membranes at body openings act as guardians. If a pathogen does make it inside our body, different types of white blood cells engulf and destroy it.

Protecting Cell Protection

The way we can enhance our immune systems is through our lifestyle choices. To improve upon our immunity, we should focus on diet, exercise, and attitude. These are three great examples of individual components which work together to form a greater whole - in this case cell protection. The Healthy Cell Concept consists of the following components to help us achieve a healthier lifestyle: Healthy Mental Attitude, Cell Food, Cell Enviroment, Cell Protection, and Cell Exercise.
