6 Easy Ways To Boost Your Immune System Naturally
“Whenever the immune system successfully deals with an infection, it emerges from the experience stronger and
better able to confront similar threats in the future. Our immune system develops in combat. If at the first sign of
infection, you always jump in with antibiotics, you do not give the immune system a chance to grow stronger” –
Dr. Andrew Weil, MD
Would you like to boost your immune system so that you can
fight many of today’s most dangerous diseases?
In this article, I’m going to show you how you can do just that.
Using simple lifestyle changes and by using ingredients
straight from mother earth’s natural pharmacopeia.
There can be no doubt that our immune systems are the first
line of defence when it comes to fighting any form of disease.
So why wouldn’t you want to make sure it’s at the top of its
game?
Your immune system acts as an internal defence system and
helps prevent bacterial and viral infections, toxins, microbes,
parasites and other infectious diseases. It does this by starting a collection of immune responses which react to
any potential threat to our health.
For the most part, our immune system goes unnoticed and goes about its work in protecting us around the clock.
Most of us though are guilty of neglecting our immune system, until of course, we need it the most.
When it breaks down due to illness, nutritional deficiency, lack of sleep or sometimes due to stress; we open
ourselves up to a host of potential illnesses just waiting to evade our defences and disrupt our health and
wellbeing.
If you are a tumor patient or are suffering from any form of chronic disease, you will understand the importance of
building a strong immune system. In fact, countless research has shown that having a strong and fully optimal
immune system cannot only prevent disease; but in some cases cure it!
If your immune response is not strong enough, disease can run riot and cause lasting damage and in many
cases, death.
This is why at the Budwig Center, we believe it’s vital that our patients focus on building their immune system at
the very outset.
If you have elected to undergo chemotherapy or radiation, you will especially want to take note, as these forms of
treatment will almost certainly destroy your immune system!
The good news, is that getting the immune system back in tip top condition can be done both easily and naturally
without the need for antibiotics.
How Can I Boost My Immune System Naturally?
Supplementation is Vital
If you have a tumor or other serious illness, you will most definitely need to use a proven immune boosting
supplement. Diet alone, will not be enough!

2. Age is another major factor. As we grow old, our immune response becomes far weaker and needs an added
boost in order to effectively fight any potential threats.
At the Budwig Center, we have done many years of research in how to boost the immune system. For the
thousands of patients that visit our center each year or choose to do one of our distance programs, building the
immune system using one of the supplements below is always the first step.
Astragalus – Reduces side-effects of chemo and increases the number of white T-cells which identify
bacteria, viruses and rogue cells.
Artemisinin – Has been shown to kill some breast tumor cells in only 16 hours.
Transfer Factors – Derived from colostrum, transfer factors help to increase the body’s response time to
infection.
AHCC – Greatly increases the number of cytokines and natural killer cells in the body by as much as
800% dramatically boosting the immune system.
Selenium – Possibly the most powerful anti-tumor agent around. Selenium is an essential mineral for
health and has been proven to inhibit tumor activity.
Vitamin D3 – A vitamin D deficiency has been shown in multiple studies to be one of the major causes of
tumor activity. Vitamin D is absolutely vital to our overall health.
Isoform Vitamin B-15 – Vitamin B-15 has been shown to increase antibody production by as much as
400%.
All of the products are readily available from our secure online store and have produced somewhat startling
results when boosting the immunity of even our most poorly of patients.

Get at Least 20 Minutes Exercise Each Day
In some cases you may be too unwell to do much physical
exercise, which is understandable. If you can though, just a
few minutes exercise each day is a great way of boosting the
immune system.
The good news, is that you don’t need to do hours of
vigorous exercise each day, weight training or half
marathons.
Just 20 minutes walking, playing ball with the children,
cycling, gardening or even taking the stairs instead of the
elevator, all help to give us gentle yet beneficial exercise.
Regular exercise will also help you de-stress, feel better
about yourself and may also help you to lose weight and avoid many obesity related diseases.
Avoid Obesity and Maintain a Healthy Weight
Rates of obesity, especially in the West are at epidemic proportions.
Obesity is the root cause of many of today’s most deadly diseases, such as heart disease, cardiovascular
disease, diabetes and cancer. Research has also shown that obesity also has a detrimental effect on the immune
system. 1
It’s hard to imagine a more destructive risk factor than obesity!
Try to make sure you maintain your ideal weight. Cut out the carbohydrates, sugars and trans fats. Get used to

3. ditching the processed foods and replace them with nutritious whole foods.
Eat Nutritious Whole Foods and Eliminate Processed Foods
Malnutrition leads to a weakened immune system. This is
why, many of the worlds poorest people are so prone to
contracting disease. They are unable to feed themselves with
nutritious, healthy food which could potentially protect them
from many of today’s most devastating diseases.
Your army of immune system T-cells are like any other part of
your body, they need regular nourishment to thrive.
The healthy foods that we eat provide us with an abundance
of micronutrients such as selenium, zinc, copper, folic acid,
vitamin A, B, C and D. All of these and more help keep the
immune system running continuously.
Some of the most micronutrient dense foods that have been proven to help boost immunity include:
Garlic – Contains Allicin which actively fights infection and bacteria.
Probiotics – Kefir, yogurt, sauerkraut contain good bacteria.
Green Tea – High in epigallocatechin (EGCG) catechins.
Mushrooms – Boosts white blood cell neutrophils that fight infection.
Cruciferous Vegetables – Such as kale, cabbage, lettuce and broccoli.
Ginger – Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant that also activates immune fighting T-cells.
Berries – Blueberries, raspberries, acai and goji berries contain immune boosting phytonutrients and
antioxidants.
Chicken Soup – Not tinned. Make from scratch using fresh ingredients.
Oily Fish – Rich in Omega 3 essential fatty acids.
Whenever possible, remember to use fresh, organic ingredients when cooking. Avoid processed foods wherever
possible and cook from scratch using whole foods.
If you cook from scratch using fresh ingredients, you should be getting all the nutrition your immune system
needs.
Alcohol and Smoking Reduce Your Immune Response
It’s a fact that both acute and chronic exposure to alcohol can lead to a suppressed immune system and lead to a
reduced response time when it comes to fighting infection. 3
It does this by impairing the ability of infection fighting white blood cells (neutrophils) from reaching the infected
areas of the body.
Smoking not only fills your organs with toxic smoke, but also impairs the body’s ability to combat disease. 4
Those who give up smoking have been shown to significantly increase the number of natural killer cells (NK) in
the body which help to eliminate cancer cells. 5
Learn to Eliminate Stress
Stress is a killer! There is no other way to really express just how serious it can be to your health.

4. Research has confirmed that stress has a negative effect on the immune system, so de-stressing is an important
measure in boosting immune response. 2
Ways to de-stress include:-
Walking in nature
Watch a funny movie
Do EFT
Listen to some music
Forgive someone
Get some exercise
Take up a new hobby
Deep breathing exercises
