There is a biological force within the body that wants you to live to old age. While conventionally this force is known in medicine as the immune system, Dr. Bob calls it: "The Biological Soul."

The Biological Soul is designed to protect you and allow you to live a healthy life. This force is tangible, measurable, lives within the physical body and determines our age and wellbeing through life. It is physical and complex and, in many ways, spiritual. It is affected by life's stresses, by diets, and by overall health. Though not immortal, it both shapes your life and is shaped by it.

Immunity Strong walks readers through how the immune system works, what makes it implode or keeps it safe, and what modern science reveals about how it connects to every part of the body to keep it aliveβ€”as the seat of our "Biological Soul." Written in Dr. Bob's trademark down-to-earth style, the book explains that the normal immune system functions like a police department protecting the body from harm. While as a nation we have recently been focused on the effects of infections, the book reveals the importance of noting that disorders of immunity are at the root of most diseases that shorten or impact our lives. From chronic pain and fatigue syndromes, heart disease, clogged arteries, and even the ability to recognise and destroy cancer, to multiple sclerosis, lupus, celiac disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and autoimmune disordersβ€”all are linked to one or another glitch in the immune system.

The purpose of this book is to provide significant information on the incredible complexity of the immune system and how the integration of spiritual, scientific, and emotional values can enhance health. It is Dr. Bob's hope that readers will find a new appreciation of the miracle that is the physical body and understand the potential within our Biological Soul to promote longevity and overall happiness in life.

Immunity Strong: Boost Your Body's Natural Healing Power and Live to 100 is a must-read for anyone wishing to nurture and enhance their health.
