This clip introduces the emerging theory of "immunofatigue": as people age the immune system becomes progressively overwhelmed, reducing its capacity to defend against external threats and to 'police' internal cellular health. The speaker links immune decline to impaired autophagy, unchecked cellular senescence, failure to clear infections (e.g., Lyme, mold, viruses, parasites), and potential increases in circulating tumor cells.

There's an emerging theory in aging called immunofatigue. And it's the assumption that progressively as we age, the immune system gets more and more and more overwhelmed. And we know that the immune system protects us from the outside world, but we also don't realize the role that it has in just policing ourselves, catching these metabolic shifts in cells so that something becomes a circulating tumor cell. It's absent, keeping autophagy and cellular senescence in check. The act of getting rid of useless cells and things like Lyme disease especially, as well as mold, my viruses, parasites just distract the immune system.
