Our modern society is becoming more and more stressful. Your immune system functions to fight disease-causing germs, like bacteria and viruses, and to remove them from the body, as well as substances from the environment, and to fight disease-causing changes in the body.
When it’s not working properly, you get sick. Some of these germs, or invaders, will make you ill if your body has never encountered them before. Others will only make you sick one time - like chickenpox. Yet others can make you sick over and over again - like the common cold.

People typically think of stress as a negative emotion caused by individual events, but did you know that we all actually produce stress hormones 24 hours a day?
Epinephrine (a.k.a. adrenaline) is a potent stress hormone produced in your adrenal glands. It makes your heart beat faster and leads to production of glucose so that your body has sugar to run on when under stress.
The issue is that we are only meant to make epinephrine under acute stress.
Our bodies aren’t made to experience chronic, ongoing exposure to stress hormones. But the sustained stress of difficult relationships, a tense work environment, or even living during a global pandemic all contribute to the repeated release of epinephrine.
And while people often think of stress as an emotional or mental event, your body responds exactly the same way when you have a serious illness, infection, or toxic exposure.
In addition to epinephrine, cortisol is another one of our stress hormones. It is also produced in our adrenal glands, with the highest levels seen in the morning, giving us energy for the day.
Cortisol levels drop at bedtime in order to allow us to fall asleep and recoup. This is called a “normal diurnal pattern.” Chronic stress contributes to adrenal dysfunction and causes abnormalities in this diurnal pattern.
Vitamin deficiencies and chronic stress can compromise your immune system. The other side to that coin is that consuming immune-enhancing nutrients and botanicals can support and strengthen your immune response. In addition to supplementing, it’s important to eat well, get regular exercise, adequate sleep and limit the toxins you are putting into your body.
To get the most benefit from the supplements you are taking, consume a nutrient-dense diet full of low-glycemic foods while avoiding certain foods that cause inflammation, such as overly processed foods, dairy and gluten.
