Importance of Dendtritic cells in COVID-19 epidemic

Types of Diseases

There are two forms of illnesses.

(1.)Life-style illness: A disease that an individual incurs due to his/her lifestyle.E.x. wrong eating habits, less sleep hours, lack of sanitation at home or work environment.

(2.)Infectious disease: If a pathogen enters the body of a person whose immune system is not strong enough, then the disease which the individual incurs is called an infectious disease.

Infectious disease caused by Bacteria.

There are mainly two types of pathogens that are responsible for infections:
  • Bacteria
  • Virus
On this post, we will discuss about infections caused by viruses in detail to understand how we can counter COVID-19 effectively.

VIRUS

Virus infection caused by COVID-19.


A virus is a type of pathogen which uses the cells of the living body to multiply. They are dead outside the living body.

It depends on the type of converting enzyme in the virus that which part of the body will the virus infect first. If the virus enters through the nose then it can infect the throat, lungs, or stomach and if the virus enters through the skin, a skin infection can occur. The fatality of a virus towards the mammals cannot be measured as the immune strength of every living being is different.

Our body's Dendritic cells play a key role in fighting an infection caused by a Virus or Bacteria.

What are Dendritic cells?

Network of Dendritic cells.


Dendritic cells are antigen-presenting cells of the immune system in mammals. This means that they are responsible for triggering an immune response if a foreign pathogen enters the body.

In a layman's language, Dendritic cells decide that whether the pathogen that entered your body is your friend or foe.

If there is a lack in the number of Dendritic cells in the body then the patient can be vulnerable to Diabetes type 1, auto-immune disease, allergies, skin diseases, etc.

If the Dendritic cells of the body decides that the foreign substance is actually a threat to the body then it orders the immune system to stop the pathogen or chemical that has entered the body.

Once our immune system fights back the temperature of our body rises which causes the pathogens that have entered our body to become inactive and the T cells to fight the pathogens.

The application of chemicals over the body causes the death of Dendritic cells. For example applying Deo or Perfume, using sanitizer, using a vaccine to gain immunity against a disease.

Why does using a vaccine cause harm to the Dendritic cells of our body?

COVID-19 cure vaccine.


A vaccine usually contains the protein of a virus to activate the immune system against that particular virus to gain immunity against that virus. Though, Dendritic cells do not react towards the protein of the virus present as the virus itself is absent so doctors add Aluminium or a type of compound that would blind the judgment of Dendritic cells. This causes the immune system to activate against the protein and the body gains immunity against that virus.

Thus taking vaccines damages the judgment power of the Dendritic cells of our body. We must not take steps that kills Dendritic cells in our body. People who apply Deodorants, perfumes or other chemicals on their bodies are knowingly or unknowingly trying to kill the Dendritic cells withing their body and such people are at a greater risk of death due to COVID-19.

 Dealing with such viruses is very problematic for the immune system as such a virus strain has not been encountered by your immune system ever before. For a great immunity, a person needs to take care of dendritic cells in his/her body.

 To maintain a good state of your Dendritic cells, eat any of the following fruits every day.
  • 1 Guava
  • 2 Oranges
  • 3 Mangoes
  • 4 Tomatoes
If you eat any 1 of the following fruits given above, then you will be consuming 0.2 grams of Vitamin-C along with many other necessary nutrients that your body needs to stay fit.

Dr.Biswaroop Roy promises that if an individual consumes any one of these fruits every day then there is no need to worry about COVID-19 or any other form of Virus as the body will be fit enough to fight such viruses.
