Abstract

Immunity is a balanced condition in which multicellular organisms have sufficient biological defences to resist infection, illness, or other undesirable biological invasions while also having sufficient tolerance to prevent allergies and autoimmune disorders. Several factors like sleep, diet, stress, hygiene, physical activity and lifestyle can affect the immune system’s performance, and any offsets in these behaviours can cause havoc to immune functions. In this review, will discuss the association of Immunity with autoimmune diseases, and impact of diet, physical activity, aging and lifestyle factors on immunity. We discuss that how diet and Physical activity can help in immunity management, also the significant effect of nutrient, i.e., vitamins and minerals in improving and balancing immunity. 8-10hrs sleep and brisk walking for 20-30min at least and eating organic have been considered very effective.
