If these symptoms start appearing in the body, be alert, is this a sign of a weak Immune system?
The immune system is the foundation of the body. If it becomes weak, the whole body stops working. Every year in India, 0.02% of deaths occur due to a weak Immunity. If you have less immunity, you get untimely colds, skin infections, fatigue in the body and wounds do not heal quickly.
It is a system that keeps a record of all the diseases you have suffered in the past. If in the future that disease occurs again, the immune system fights those diseases and drives them away. On the other hand, if your immune system is weak, your body starts fighting those diseases and then you start feeling weak and tired.
