Joy Kong explains why the thymus gland shrinks with age, obesity, stress, and infection. Thymic peptides can reverse immune decline by boosting natural killer cells, increasing glutathione production, and shifting immune response from TH2 to TH1, potentially reversing immune suppression in chronic infections like Lyme.
I want to talk with you a little bit about the thymus gland. So the thymus gland actually shrinks and degenerates when we age. Also degrades with obesity, too much calorie intake, genetics, inflammation, stress, pregnancy toxins, hypothyroidism or low growth hormone levels, chronic infection or zinc deficiency. What can thymic peptides do? So thymic peptides can actually improve tissue repair and healing, improve host defense when it comes to infections, and it can reverse immune suppression in chronic infections such as Lyme. And it can increase antioxidant and glutathione production, it can boost natural killer cell production, and it can help shift your immune system from TH2 to TH1. Response.
