Immunity and Ayurveda

Immunity is the body’s natural response to protect and maintain homeostasis in the system. It is the ecological relationship between the body-mind and the world in which it lives and interacts. It is a wholistic system interconnected with the psychological-endocrine-neurological systems in the body. A healthy connection results in a healthy internal environment which leads us to a long, successful life and fulfillment of our life’s potential.

Our immune system is facing a unique historical challenge as we encounter increased environmental, industrial, social, pharmaceutical and dietary stress factors that are now known to have a negative impact on our immune systems. This micro-cosmic challenge is a reflection of the larger environmental challenge that our macro-cosmic world is also facing. The pressures of global population increase, industrial expansion and destabilization of many natural ecosystems is clearly stressing the earth’s natural immunity. How we care for ourselves can have a direct impact on the earth’s health and visa versa.

Symptoms of Depressed Immunity:

• Regular or persistent bacterial, fungal, viral or parasitic infections

• Slow healing wounds

• Auto immune diseases

• Allergies

• Inflammatory disorders

• Chronic fatigue

• Chronic degenerative conditions

Impaired immune system response is present in such diseases as Cancer, Candidiasis, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, AIDS and TB.
