I think of it this way. The immune system is like an army, ready to fight off foreign invaders. If you were a king, would you want a huge standing army at all times, or the ability to draft soldiers as needed? Having a huge standing army is not only a waste of resources if there isn’t anything to fight, but your soldiers might get bored and invent things to fight or just stir up trouble.
So my guess is you’d be prone to inflammation and develop food sensitivities, but it’s a total guess. If they were the case though, chronic inflammation is really bad long term.
Yes, I understand the theory. And it’s fine to discuss speculation, because that could turn out to be the case.
But I also brought up glasses because not everything the body has done to survive is something that can’t be changed.
We’ll have to see what happens when we turn up the immune system.
As a hopefuly kidney transplant candidate at some point… I’m very interested as I know after a transplant, I have to take things to suppress my immune system, so I particularly suspect for that reason I might not be able to benefit from this new thing… but I hope I’m wrong :)
