NEW VIDEO: How The Immune System ACTUALLY Works – IMMUNE
🕑 Added 2021-08-10 14:06:17 +0000 UTCThe human immune system is the most complex biological system we know, after the human brain, and yet, most of us never learn how it works. Or what it is. Your immune System consists of hundreds of tiny and two large organs, it has its own transport network spread throughout your body. Every day it makes hundreds of billions of fresh cells.
It is not some sort of abstract entity. Your immune system is YOU. Your biology protecting you from the billions of microorganisms that want to consume you and from your own perverted cells that turn into cancer. It's so manifold that it is impossible to cover in one video, so we’ll make a series looking at different aspects of it.
Today, what happens when your body is invaded and your first lines of defenses are engaged in a fight for life and death?

Where can I buy the Immune Book?

I know right ? I had the same feeling with other videos (not this in particular), and everything was so well explained.

This is awesome!!

Thanks for going for this topic. I know you already mentioned creating more videos related to the immune system before and I am looking forward for these since. Would it be possible to also mention how disinfectants (both the usual and alcohol-free, e.g. for children) affect the wounds and the immune system? Maybe related to how responses are different after surgeries? Thanks a lot again, book pre-ordered ;)

Amazing work with this vid! Always impressed with how much you improve throughout the years. Also, I'm on the edge of my seat and resisting not to google "How does every t-cell possibly know how to combat every bacteria in the universe"

Loved the video! But, I would like to ask that maybe use words like self destruct instead of “kills itself” and “suicide”. For me, it was hard to get past it to fully enjoy the video. Just a suggestion.

It’s great to see kurzegesagt videos about topics you actually studied for, because it removes any doubt I’d ever have about videos in (to me) unknown topics. Top notch explanation that has both enough depth to not gloss over relevant detail, whilst remaining understandable to all viewers.

The best part about the video is that even if you know all the knowledge it’s still an amazing watch. Talk about production values!
Enoch
wow so fast

Pre-order links that don't use Amazon and their *censored* DRM would be highly appreciated, particularly for the German version
