What Are Lymphocytes, and How Do They Help the Immune System? - #14480
I recently had a blood test, and my doctor mentioned that my lymphocyte levels were slightly abnormal. I want to understand what lymphocytes are, how they work, and what factors affect their count. Some people say that low lymphocytes indicate weak immunity, but I am unsure whether high levels also pose a risk. Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell responsible for fighting infections and maintaining immune defense. They include T cells, B cells, and natural killer cells, which help in destroying viruses, bacteria, and abnormal cells. Many factors like viral infections, autoimmune diseases, or stress can influence lymphocyte levels. Some natural remedies include herbs like ashwagandha, turmeric, and vitamin C-rich foods. However, I want to know whether chronic lymphocyte imbalance is a sign of an underlying health issue. For those who have monitored their lymphocyte levels, what lifestyle changes helped in maintaining a healthy immune balance? Would love insights into how to naturally support lymphocyte production and when to seek medical advice.
