Flora intestinale e difese immunitarie

If the intestinal flora is not working properly, you can fall ill more often, even with colds and flu. This occurs because around 400 square metres of our intestines account for 50 percent of the immune system, a system called the GALT. But, since the immune resources are not infinite, if the antibodies have to monitor the digestive system because we are eating poorly or the intestine is inflamed, this means that other parts of the body remain undefended and weaker in the face of attacks from viruses and bacteria.
