The task of the immune system - is to protect the body against genetically foreign antigen in the form of bacteria, viruses, protozoa, as well as their own cells that have changed as a result of mutations.
With age, the immune system with its control function, as well as the timely destruction of foreign agents, ceases to cope. As a result, are accumulated a changes in the body which lead to aging and the formation of a chronic disease.
