🔥MYTH 🔥!

💡A fever actually can help your immune system fight infections in two ways. 

First: a higher body temperature speeds up how fast your cells function, including those that fight illness. That means they can respond to invading germs faster. 

Second: an elevated body temp makes it harder for bacteria and viruses to thrive in your body.

🤒Note: you should always call your doctor if you have any concerns or if you’ve been sick for a few days, have a really high temp, and/or other accompanying symptoms.

Enjoy the rest of your day,

Lu
