The immune system is your body’s defense system against harmful invaders, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, and cancer cells. It consists of two main parts: the innate immune system and the adaptive immune system. The innate immune system is the first to respond to any threat and includes physical barriers, such as skin and mucous membranes, and immune cells that can kill or engulf germs. The adaptive immune system is more specific and develops over time as your body encounters different germs. It produces antibodies, proteins that recognize and neutralize germs, and memory cells, which can remember and respond faster to previous infections. The immune system also has various organs and tissues that help produce, store, and transport immune cells and molecules, such as the bone marrow, lymph nodes, spleen, thymus, and tonsils1
