The Truth About Boosting Immunity | Jenna Macciochi | TEDxManchester
Immunologist Jenna Macciochi takes a sceptical look at the long history of people’s attempts to boost immunity. She will reveal that immunity is not so much a “thing” as it is a complex system and leave us with some science-based guidance to what we can do to give our bodies the best shot at staying healthy. As we continue to battle the global pandemic, interest in the immune system is at an all-time high. Dr. Jenna Macciochi is a Senior Lecturer in Immunology at the Sussex University School of Life Sciences. As a gifted science communicator, Jenna has pursued a mission to spread the latest science-backed information on how to improve our immunity as well as to debunk myths on the topic. Her first book, Immunity: the Science of Staying Well, was published in 2020 by Harper Collins. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx

hi
Total BS, go away!
this ted talk is really amazing and thruth, BRILLIANT
I believe a healthy lifestyle ie nutrition, exercise, sleep support a healthy immune system. The Microbiome is a huge factor too as
the gut ( 2nd brain ) produces neurotransmitters, serotonin etc.
I’m glad I watched to the end as initially I began thinking it’s not worth bothering taking vitamin D3 ? Very confusing initially. I normally don’t fall ill ever . Over the last few months I’ve had a chesty cough develope. It coincides with emotional upset from being in a toxic relationship. I think blocking contact is vital for my immune system. Thankyou for your video.
なんつった🤔🥱
The most banal Tedx talk I’ve ever listened.

The optimal manner to strengthen your immune system will be to take regularly 1 tablespoon (= 15 ml) castor oil early in the morning on an empty stomach. So you will not only be able to cleanse your bowels from all the waste but your liver from all toxins deposed there too.

Lots of analogies. Lots of validation of current trends. Very little if any new insight
FANTASTIC
Truth be told, despite the great detail and science presented, i am disappointed that doctors talk so much about our immune system but there is no way to measure its strength and balance due to its complexity.
It will help to give us a clear list of do’s and don’ts as we know best to keep our immune system at its best.
But thanks for your honesty. Most greatly appreciated. ❤❤❤❤❤
