How Healthy Are You?

Karl Humiston, MD, describes a unique interpretation

 

of the immune system. He crystallizes significant holistic

 

points.

 

5 Levels of the Immune System

 

The Immune System, the name we give to that complex network

 

of body processes for resisting and recovering from illness, can

 

be thought of as functioning on 5 levels.

 

Level #1: Always in good health, never sick. . . Like having a

 

housecleaner who never sleeps and stops you before you walk

 

into the house with muddy boots. Rare -- achieved only in

 

special disciplined circumstances, like a mountaintop yogi on

 

organic food.

 

Level #2: Sore throats and other illnesses that come intensely

 

and go quickly. Requires a pretty healthy immune system that

 

is like an army in fighting shape. Like having a housecleaner who

 

catches your muddy boots as soon as you walk in an immediately

 

cleans up the mess with a flurry or activity.

 

Level #3: Fat and allergies. . . Immune system still active but

 

getting disorganized. . . like having a housecleaner with plenty

 

of energy but using it to throw fits. Allergy systems are like

 

but useless complaints. Fat is a reasonably healthy response,

 

and you can lose weight by a malnutrition diet that weakens

 

the immune system through calorie restriction.

 

Level #4: Addictions, chronic disease, and candidiasis. Immune

 

system on the defensive and seeking comfort. Like having a

 

housekeeper who only does enough to stay out of trouble and

 

keep peace. . . like the French occupied by the German Army -

 

oppressive, but no fighting. Health is poor, whether or not a

 

specific disease is present.

 

Level #5: Serious problems, like cancer. . . immune system

 

failed. . . housekeeper died of passed out drunk. Harder to

 

help now, though not impossible

 

o

 

Hippocrates said: " First do no harm. " Pharm-Cartel take note.

 

Resist the temptation of treatments that suppress symptoms,

 

but that stop the healing process. When offered chemotherapy

 

for bleeding gums or mercury-amalgam fillings, think about the

 

immune system. You may need a new 'housecleaner.'
