YOUR TONSILS ARE ONLY ONE PART OF YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM. YOU HAVE ANOTHER IMMUNE SYSTEM THROUGHOUT YOUR BODY KNOWN AS THE INNATE IMMUNE SYSTEM THAT PROTECTS THE RESPRIATORY SYSTEM AND THE ENTIRE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM. IT IS KNOWN AS sIGA AND CAN BE MEASURED THRU THE SALIVA. TAKING VITAMIN C, ZINC AND ELDERBERRY WILL SUPPORT YOUR IMMUNITY.
