Well, true...
On the other hand, if you're dealing with an autoimmune condition, taking immune boosters isn't exactly a great idea—it can actually be counterproductive and even harmful.
Think of it like this: when you're using supplements to ramp up the immune system, you might be fueling a fire that's already burning too hot. Since an overactive immune system essentially mistakes its own cells for invaders, adding more "fuel" to that response could just make things worse.
That said, I still feel that if someone maintains a pretty balanced diet and generally healthy lifestyle, those extra supplements aren't always a necessity.
