Music and Immune System
1. Immune System
The immune system protects our body from outside invaders. These include germs such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi, and toxins (chemicals made by microbes).
2. Immune Response
Immune Response is the way the body defends itself against substances it sees as harmful or foreign. In an immune response, the immune system recognizes the antigens (usually proteins) on the surface of substances or micro-organisms, such as bacteria or viruses, and attacks and destroys,
or tries to destroy, them.
3. Immunoglobulin G
Immunoglobulin G (IgG): This is the most common antibody. It’s in blood and other body fluids, and protects against bacterial and viral infections.
4. Immunoglobulin A (IgA)
Immunoglobulin A (IgA): It’s found in the linings of the respiratory tract
and digestive system, as well as in saliva (spit), tears, and breast milk.
5. Music and IgA
According to Daniel Levitin, listening to relaxing music the body produces more antibodies type immunoglobulin A
6. IgA and COVID-19
The lack of IgA might represent a possible cause of COVID-19 severity,
vaccine failure, and possible cause of prolonged viral shedding in patients with Antibody Deficiencies, including Selective IgA Deficiency.
7. Music Solution
Music solution for IgA Deficiency is: listening to relaxing music, singing and drumming.
