Always Getting Sick? Let's Find Out the Cause & Treat You

Two Convenient Locations in Plantsville & Bristol, CT

Amid a world brimming with health challenges, a robust immune system is our protection against illness. Yet, for some, this defense system seems to falter, leading to frequent colds, infections, and a general sense of unwellness. It’s a struggle that may seem relentless, but it’s not one you have to face alone. At Confidia™ Health Institute, we recognize the complexities of immune health and stand ready to fortify your natural defenses.

What Is Poor Immunity? 

Poor immunity can present as a susceptibility to infections, prolonged recovery times, and a greater incidence of autoimmune reactions. When your immune system is not functioning optimally, it can have a cascading effect on your overall health, vitality, and quality of life. It's a signal from your body that requires attention, not just to treat the symptoms, but to address the root causes.

What Causes Poor Immunity?

Several factors can contribute to a compromised immune system, including:

Nutritional Deficiencies: A diet lacking in essential vitamins and minerals can impair immune function.

Chronic Stress: Long-term stress has been shown to weaken immune response.

Insufficient Sleep: Quality sleep is crucial for immune system regeneration.

Sedentary Lifestyle: Regular physical activity is key to maintaining a healthy immune response.

Environmental Toxins: Exposure to pollutants and chemicals can adversely affect immunity.
