2022年8月31日 腸の働きと免疫

最近、腸活動と免疫の働きに関する話を耳にする機会が多い。 コロナ感染者が増減を繰り返し、既に第7波を経験して脚光を浴びたせいもあるだろうが腸活動と免疫機能が関係しているのは意外な話であった。 人間の臓器なので不必要なものはないとしても、心臓停止は即生死に係わるが腸は栄養吸収の臓器で大事は大事として生死に直結するものとの認識はなかった。 疾病への耐性は生死に直結するとても重要な機能を担うようだ。
確かに快便だと体も軽く全身の調子が良いと感じる。長期出張で腸内菌が変わる場合は、要注意と言うことかもしれない。 「腹も身のうち」である。この大切な臓器と心して向き合っていかなければいけないと思った次第である。


Gut function and immunity, August 31st, 2022

Recently, there are many opportunities to hear stories about intestinal activity and immune function. The number of people infected with corona are repeatedly increased and decreased, and it’s surprising that the intestinal activity and immune function are related, although it may be because the 7th wave has already been experienced and has been in the spotlight. Since it is a human organ, even if there are no unnecessary things, there is recognition that cardiac arrest is immediately related to life and death, but that the intestines are an important organ for absorbing nutrients and are not directly linked to life and death. Resistance to disease seems to play a very important function directly linked to life and death.
It's true that if you have a comfortable bowel movement, your body will feel lighter and your whole body will feel better. If the intestinal bacteria change due to a long business trip, it may be said that you need to be careful. "The stomach is also inside the body." It is up to me to think that I have to face this important organ with all my heart.
