Summary

A respected immunologist, allergist, and functional medicine doctor breaks down the latest science on immunity, offering “the most important guide available” (Mark Hyman, MD) to balancing your system for optimal health and longevity。

To most of us, the immune system is seemingly unknowable—it's an invisible, complex network of cells, receptors, and messengers, and there's no standard way to see if it's functioning as it should。 Yet in spite of this, it affects every aspect of our health, influencing (and sometimes even causing) nearly every disease known to humanity。 Much has been made about “boosting” immunity, but what exactly does that mean, and what if boosting isn't really what your unique system needs?
 
In The Immunotype Breakthrough, Dr。 Heather Moday explains that for most, immune system balance is key。 Drawing on a wealth of cutting edge research and fascinating case studies, Dr。 Moday explains that the immune system is fluid and significantly influenced by our behaviors, diet, habits, and environment。 She identifies four primary Immunotypes—Smoldering, Weak, Hyperactive, and Misguided—that underlie the immune imbalances that commonly lead to disease, chronic inflammation, infection, allergies, and autoimmunity。 By identifying your personal immunotype—where you fall on this immunity spectrum—you can intervene by making focused, individualized, natural lifestyle changes to ensure it functions optimally 

Featuring engaging and accessible science, practical and customizable takeaways, and interactive quizzes to help you zero in on your specific needs, The Immunotype Breakthrough is a revolutionary program for creating an individualized lifestyle and diet that will lead to immune resilience, vitality, and longevity。

This is such a brilliant way to look at immune issues and I really enjoyed this book。 The author is a immunologist, allergist and functional medicine doctor and she describes the four types of immune issues -- weak, overactive, smoldering and misguided。 She provides a very detailed look at all of the parts of the immune system and then describes the four types (with a quiz to help) and what causes them。 Then she talks about what specific steps can help correct each type。 Some things help all typ This is such a brilliant way to look at immune issues and I really enjoyed this book。 The author is a immunologist, allergist and functional medicine doctor and she describes the four types of immune issues -- weak, overactive, smoldering and misguided。 She provides a very detailed look at all of the parts of the immune system and then describes the four types (with a quiz to help) and what causes them。 Then she talks about what specific steps can help correct each type。 Some things help all types, like getting enough sleep (crucial) and the right foods。 Other things are especially helpful for each type。 She discusses supplements, foods, lifestyle changes and much more that help correct each type of imbalance。 It's heavy on science but also gives you easy takeaways anyone can understand。 She's also encouraging and optimistic, talking about patients she's treated who have reversed their issues and reminding the reader that our bodies are designed to do this and can。 A great read。I read a digital ARC of this book for review。 All opinions are my own。 。。。more

This was a decent introduction to the human immune system and various ‘immunotypes,’ but I have to say that I didn’t find the breakthrough I was expecting from the title。 Everything was information I’ve read before, and I feel it oversimplifies many conditions and reasons for immune dysfunction or chronic inflammation。 It’s a good starter for someone living a fairly toxic lifestyle who doesn’t know where to begin with changing aspects of their diet, household products, and routines。 Thank you to This was a decent introduction to the human immune system and various ‘immunotypes,’ but I have to say that I didn’t find the breakthrough I was expecting from the title。 Everything was information I’ve read before, and I feel it oversimplifies many conditions and reasons for immune dysfunction or chronic inflammation。 It’s a good starter for someone living a fairly toxic lifestyle who doesn’t know where to begin with changing aspects of their diet, household products, and routines。 Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for the opportunity to read and review this book。 。。。more

The Immunotype Breakthrough is an informative, readable book chockfull of up-to-date information about the immune system and actionable items that seem very doable。 I’m impressed and eager to start my own journey to better health based on the author’s recommendations。
