A virus is a tiny, so, so tiny, far smaller than bacteria, which are super tiny already, infectious particle that can reproduce only by infecting a host cell. And they are super abundant. You can often find 10 million viruses in a single drop of seawater. Luckily, the vast majority don't affect humans. Fewer still are harmful. A virus is basically just packages of nucleic acid and protein. and inside that protein shell is a nucleic and genome made of DNA or RNA tucked inside. This is what the virus needs to replicate itself. We often think of DNA as double-stranded and RNA as single-stranded. Viruses commandeer the host cell and uses its machinery to make more viruses, basically reprogramming it to become a virus factory. Then it makes the cell replicate and assemble copies of itself,  sometimes destroying the original cell in the process. Those new copies go on to repeat the pattern, again and again and again.

Let's pretend I have the virus. A cough or sneeze can travel several feet and stay suspended in the air for up to 10 minutes. So when I cough, I'm spreading those virus copies out on their quest to find new hosts. When the droplets from the cough or sneeze fall onto surfaces around me, They can spread onto things I touch. This is why we have to cough and sneeze into our elbows. So, what if you're not infected? Well, you can pick up these droplets. If you've touched a rail or door handle or shelf, the virus could be on your hands now. But does that mean you're infected? Well, not yet. The virus has to get into your body. That happens when your hand touches your eyes, your nostril, or your mouth. 

And that's when the virus can take over the cells it needs to find to start replicating and begin the cycle again. Ensure your immunity is strong with the power of true pure colostrum. Colostrum's natural antibodies build immunity through gut health. A healthy gut wall means our bodies have a natural defense system, giving us the resistance we need to fight off bugs and viral infections, helping our bodies perform at their best. Colostrum can contains immunoglobulins. Immunoglobulins are your body's natural warriors that attack viruses and bacteria. Learn more today how you can fight back at www.shapeupforlife.com
