These factors are: obesity, drinking alcohol, lack of sleep, chronic stress, certain medications, lack of physical activity, and nutrient deficiencies.

In order for a person’s immune health to be able to fend off viruses, the human body has to attain a healthy state of balance. In this article, the Toronto Functional Medicine Centre (TFMC) examines how specific lifestyle habits can detrimentally affect immune function. Additionally, we discuss various approaches to mitigate these effects through personalized treatment plans.

Continue reading to learn about various factors that can weaken the immune system. Obesity, for instance, can lead to diminished immunity by altering leucocyte counts and cell-mediated responses. Excessive alcohol consumption is another culprit, disrupting immune pathways and reducing the body's defenses against viruses, in addition to causing organ damage and hindering wound recovery. Additionally, inadequate sleep can compromise the immune system, leading to unregulated immune responses and heightened pro-inflammatory signaling.

Physical and mental stress can trigger an inflammatory response when a person encounters harmful germs. However, when the inflammation persists as a result of chronic stress, it can cause the formation of a chronic condition and promote the accumulation of plaque in the arteries. Certain drugs, such as biologics, corticosteroids, chemotherapy cancer treatments, and other medications are immunosuppressives, which may result in chronic inflammation of the immune cells.

Meanwhile, research has shown that 45 minutes of regular moderate physical exercise may offer health benefits for immune health, particularly for seniors. In addition, for cellular functioning to be optimized, certain amounts of vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are needed by the body. Thus, lack of nutrients, such as vitamin C, proteins, amino acids, zinc, protein, or vitamin D, may contribute to immune deficiency.

The Toronto Functional Medicine Centre (TFMC) provides personalized treatment plans aimed at supporting individual health needs. Each plan is designed to address the specific biological requirements of the patient. This approach includes modifying oral nutritional treatments and may include carefully determining the therapeutic nutrient doses in IV drip therapy to assist in maintaining wellness and health.

A functional medicine healthcare provider will discuss the patient’s medical history, current lifestyle and environmental factors, genetics, health goals, and any symptoms that the patient is experiencing, and more. Lab tests may be needed to help the clinician in confirming if there is nutritional deficiency, food sensitivities, status of gut health, etc. The test results are utilized to tailor-fit the treatment plan for overall health optimization.

At TFMC, they adjust the treatment service with integrative functional medicine. This kind of healthcare model enables collaboration between the functional medicine healthcare provider and the patient to adjust therapies for the patient’s biological needs. They can come up with treatment plans for a variety of health issues, including conditions affecting skin health, hormonal imbalances, athletic performance, functioning of nerves, chronic fatigue syndrome, cellular damage, mineral deficiencies, mood swings, inflammatory bowel disease, and more.
