Explain this term first: the immune system defends against the invasion of external pathogenic microorganisms and prevents various diseases. This defensive ability of the human body is resistance. Immunity is the body's own defense mechanism.

Second, how does Chinese medicine explain immunity?

After the explanation of modern medicine, let's take a look at how Chinese medicine explains "immunity".

"Immune"? The word "immune prescription" first appeared in medical books of Ming Dynasty in China. Literally, "free"? It can be interpreted as avoidance, evasion and removal; Chinese medicine says so? "Epidemic"? , is an evil. On a large scale, it refers to all pathogenic factors that make people sick. On a small scale, it refers to infectious diseases caused by some highly pathogenic organisms, such as bacteria and viruses. Malaria, SARS, smallpox, flu, including now? COVID-19? Can you call it? "Epidemic"? . Therefore, the book also interprets immunity as "exemption from epidemic diseases".

There are different interpretations of immunity, but one thing is consistent, that is, both Chinese medicine and western medicine believe that immunity is about equal to disease resistance. When the immunity is high, the functions of various organs in the body are good, and the chances of getting sick will be reduced.

Third, how does Chinese medicine improve immunity?
