• Immune system and CF

    Life before and after lung transplants can be radically different. While there are some commonalities for all transplant recipients like taking anti-rejection medicine, everyone’s bodies react differently. Columnist Lara Govendo details her struggles balancing her immune system and what that means for her health.

    If you’ve had a transplant, how have you managed your immune system not to get sick? If you haven’t had a transplant, are there any tips you have for keeping up a good immune system?

    I have not had a transplant, but I do like to think that regular exercise, hydration, healthy eating, and daily vitamins and supplements help to strengthen my immune system.
