WHAT IS GOOD IMMUNITY?

Good immunity—also called strong or balanced immune fitness—means your immune system can protect you from infections effectively, respond appropriately, and recover quickly, without overreacting or causing chronic inflammation.

Simple definition

👉 Good immunity = the ability to resist illness, recover fast, and stay well consistently
