The most important organ of the immune system is the Thymus. Peptides of the thymus improve its functionality so that a
large number of T-lymphocytes acquire receptors that help distinguish foreign proteins, microorganisms and damaged cells.
This eectively multiplies the immune response. The following processes depend on the thymus gland:
Correction of immunodeciency conditions associated with age or long-term illness
Maintenance of the pituitary gland and hypothalamus - the main regulators of the endocrine system
Prolactin, somatotropin, follicle-stimulating and luteinizing hormones, estradiol and progesterone
production in women
Normal functioning of the thyroid gland
Stress resistance
Behavioral responses and anxiety reduction
The Spleen is the largest lymphoid organ of the immune system, and is one of its most essential
parts, functioning to capture and process harmful substances and purify blood from various
foreign agents (e.g. bacteria, viruses). It is actively involved in the immune response: its cells
recognize antigens foreign to the body and synthesize specic antibodies to combat them. It is
also crucial to the ltration process, as it controls the circulation of red blood cells (erythrocytes)
by removing aging or defective cells. Finally, it is involved in the formation of immunoglobulins.
Reduced spleen function can typically be observed in the elderly – with issues such as dietary
problems and hypovitaminosis.
Mesenchyme is a collective term, referring to a set of cells of predominantly mesodermal origin. Connective tissues are
formed from mesenchyme and are characterized by the presence of the developed intercellular substance, providing the
the following functions to the body: supportive (the formation of shells and stroma of tissues and organs), trophic
(nutrition regulation and participation in metabolism); protective (participation in immune reactions, blood formation, and
maintenance of internal environment constancy or homeostasis).
Cartilage and Synovia tissue are a type of support and trophic tissue consisting of cartilage cells and a dense intercellular
substance (matrix). Cartilage and synovia tissue mainly provide mechanical functions: they cover articular surfaces,
increase resistance to wear, and provide cushioning and redistribution of compression and tension forces. With age
and under certain pathological conditions, calcication of the intercellular substance, or dystrophy, can occur due to the
deterioration of nutrition. This condition leads to painful sensations that limit movement.
The Liver is one of the largest human organs (the largest gland), and the health of the entire body depends on its proper
functioning. The liver's health is directly aected by our lifestyle and diet, and diseases of this vital organ are often
overlooked. The main function of the liver is to lter harmful substances and remove them from the body. It is also
involved in almost all other essential processes of the body - bile secretion, amino acid metabolism, blood depot function,
protein synthesis, control of blood clotting, regulation of glucose levels, to name a few. Liver exhaustion or impairment due
to ageing, stress, or pathological conditions can result in a number of symptoms including weakness, headaches,
powerlessness, fatigue, tiredness, sleep problems, diculty falling asleep, lack of energy and strength, irritability, and poor
moods.
The Heart is the most important human organ. Life expectancy depends on the activity and
health of the heart; the human body cannot exist without a regular supply of nutrients and
oxygen to the heart. Heart disease is the most common cause of death in many developed
countries. Moreover, the number of such conditions is increasing year by year around the world.
This is primarily due to the fact that the disease is rapidly getting younger; more and more of those
aected have been reported to be under 40 years of age.
