Supporting Immune Function with Dr. Tom Guilliams
If there’s one thing we’ve all come to appreciate during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is the importance of a healthy immune system. The immune system is a complex network of various cells, proteins, and organs that work together to help your body recognize and mitigate potential invaders, as well as recognize and protect itself. Metabolic health, proper nutrition, a healthy microbiome, and intact gut barrier are all important components necessary to support immune function.
Dr. Tom Guilliams is a PhD researcher with a specialty in molecular immunology. He recently updated his seminal work “Supporting Immune Function.” Tom joins us on today’s show to discuss innate and adaptive immunity and outline the functional medicine approach to optimize immunity.
