Overactive Immune System
by: Anonymous

My son has had an overactive immune system for almost 3 years.
He does not have it all the time, it flares up every once in a while, but when it does it is bad.
My son is 20 and eats a poor diet, so I am sure that plays a huge roll in his problem. When he has his flare ups, usually comes when he eats too much fast food for too long, which poor diet is can cause overactive immune system.

A few things I have found is that a lack of Vitamin D can cause autoimmune problems. Which makes sense, because we get vitamin D from sun exposure and my son does not spend much time outside. Each time he has a episode with his immune system flare ups, I ask them to test his vitamin D levels through blood work and the levels are usually low, so I am starting to think that could play a roll in his problems.
Vitamin D is one of the vitamins that you can get too much of, so you don't want to over do it on your supplements. Also Omega-3 such as fish oil or krill oil is suppose to be good for the immune system.
