ZOE Science & Nutrition · How 'boosting' your immune system increases inflammation and 4 ways to support balance instead | Dr Giulia Enders · 7 May 2026 podcast

But also, actually, I think you're saying that for my muscles, if I'm regularly doing exercise where, you know, they're sore and aching afterwards, like, you know, it happens to me after I go to the gym, but I guess if we have a run, you're actually saying, wow, that might be good because your immune system is sort of learning, ah, okay, I'm getting to start to realize that I should lower my immune system because I don't want to overreact because this is just a regular sort of normal thing.

And this is part of what you're describing, often overreacting.

One of the things we need to do with our immune system is not to boost it quite the reverse.

We actually wanted to get it to sort of relax a bit more into a more neutral setting.

And be able to do that a bit faster sometimes.

Sometimes just to like cool down faster.

Like in the office when you get a really stupid email and you suddenly are able to say, ugh.

I'll just reply later instead of going on about it for two hours inside of yourself.

So the immune system is the same way.

When it gets, you know, fed up with something or insulted, then it can either be like, really stupid, but we'll take care and like calm down.

Or it can be inflammatory about it for, you know, another two days.

You don't want that.

I don't.

often feel calmer after I finish an exercise session.

I tend to do a gym session like during the day within work.

And I notice often I feel calmer, even though in fact, I've obviously been straining myself much more than just like sitting in front of a desk, you know, usually looking at a video screen, talking to people.

What's going on and how does that tie into what you're describing about the interaction with like calming down my immune system?

Well, this is not only about the immune system.

This is also really about the brain being in the body, having all these things happening, like playful stress.

The experience the brain just had was similar to a disease.
