what is immunity?

 what is immunity?

Immunity is a complex biological system that can recognize and tolerate whatever belongs to the self, and to recognize and reject what is foreign 

In biology, immunity is the capability of multicellular organisms to resist harmful microorganisms. Immunity involves both specific and nonspecific components. The nonspecific components act as barriers or eliminators of a wide range of pathogens irrespective of their antigenic make-up.

The immune system protects us from invading pathogenic microorganisms .

Some of the lifestyle factors that can lead to a strong immune system include:

• Eating a diet high in fruits and vegetables.
  • Deficiencies of micro-nutrients such as zinc, selenium, iron, copper, folic acid, and vitamins A, B6, C, and E may alter immune function.
• If you drink alcohol, drink in moderation.
• Getting adequate sleep (7-9 hours a night).
• Taking steps to avoid infection.
  • Washing your hands frequently.
• Trying to minimize stress.
  • Meditating
  • Self-care routines
  • Mindfulness journaling
• Exercising regularly
• Maintaining a healthy bodyweight

For our purposes, our focus will be on how exercise and maintaining a healthy bodyweight affect the immune system.

Benefits of Exercise:

• Improving cardiovascular health
• Reducing blood pressure
• Helping control bodyweight
• Protecting against a variety of diseases

Physical activity may help flush bacteria out of the lungs and airways.This may reduce your chance of getting a cold, flu, or other illness. In general, exercising at a moderate to vigorous intensity for 60 minutes or less is optimal for the immune-boosting benefits of exercise. If you do this daily or almost daily, your immune and metabolic systems continue to strengthen, building on previous gains .

JOKE OF THE DAY

 JOKE  OF THE DAY

समाज में इसी तरह से लोगों का सहयोग मिलता है

जब पहली बार  सुपरफास्ट ट्रेन में चढ़ा।

सहयात्रियों से पूछने लगा - गाजियाबाद कब आएगा ?

मुझे उतरना है।

सहयात्रियों ने बताया, भाई, ये गाड़ी  फास्ट  ट्रैन है। 

गाजियाबाद से गुजरेगी मगर रुकेगी नहीं।

मैं घबरा गया।

सहयात्रियों ने समझाया, " घबराओ नहीं। 

गाजियाबाद में ये ट्रेन रोज स्लो हो जाती है। तुम एक काम करो, गाजियाबाद में जैसे ही ट्रेन स्लो हो , तो तुम दौड़ते हुए प्लेटफॉर्म पर उतरना और फिर बिना रुके थोड़ी दूर तक, ट्रेन जिस दिशा में जा रही है, उसी दिशा में दौड़ते रहना। इससे तुम गिरोगे नहीं 

गाजियाबाद आने से पहले सहयात्रियों ने मुझे गेट पर खड़ा कर दिया। गाजियाबाद आते ही सिखाए अनुसार मैं प्लेटफार्म पर कूदा और कुछ अधिक ही तेजी से दौड़ गया।

 इतना तेज दौड़ा कि अगले कोच तक जा पहुँचा। उस दुसरे कोच के यात्रियों में से, किसी ने मेरा हाथ पकड़ा तो किसी ने शर्ट पकड़ी और मुझे खींचकर ट्रेन में चढ़ा लिया। ट्रेन फिर गति पकड़ चुकी थी। सहयात्री मुझ से कहने लगे, 

भाई, तेरा नसीब अच्छा है जो, ये गाड़ी तुझे मिल गई। ये फास्ट ट्रेन है, गाजियाबाद में तो रुकती ही नहीं । "
