Immunology & Immune System
The prevention of infectious diseases is particularly important inathletes who need a good all-seasonhealth status to be optimally prepared for competition. Since the immune system is highly responsive to exercise, periods of intensi ed training induce a transient immune dysfunction. Athletes regula...
