A viral or bacterial infection may cause changes to the immune system by stripping away the good bacteria in the gut. When this happens, it makes the patient's body an open target for numerous diseases because the body's primary defense mechanism, its immune system, is down. Inflammation and autoimmune conditions may develop shortly after individuals fight off a viral or bacterial infection when the immune system is at its weakest. Patients should be sure to restore immune health by taking a multivitamin and mineral supplement along with a probiotic.
