Causes of immune system malfunction |

|
|

| Anything that increases cortisone production (one of the stress hormones) including: |
| Stress |
|
| Immune deficiency diseases (e.g. Aids) |
|
| Ageing |
|
| Lack of sleep |
|
| Cortisone medication |
(Often used by cancer, asthma, psoriasis, arthritis and allergy sufferers) |
| Intense exercise |
(Cortisone is the body’s own anti-inflammatory. It is produced when intense exercise hammers the joints. Therefore athletes often have a cold, especially after a recent, intense training programme) |
| Modern man´s diet |
(This is low in plant material, and high in refined carbohydrates, the wrong type of fat and preservatives) |
