He great defense system helps ward off even the most dangerous of invaders. Doesn’t it? Similarly, our body has an inbuilt defense mechanism – our immune system – that does a remarkable job of defending us against disease-causing microorganisms like fungus, viruses, and bacteria.

Or just breathing in the air can cause invasion of a tuberculosis bacteria? Luckily, our immune system protects us from these common, everyday bacteria and other microbes present in the environment.
What happens when your immune system fails?

Also, they are likely to get affected by the outbreak of pandemics. So, what can you do to save yourself and stay healthy & protected? Strengthen your immunity!
