Among these, psychological changes are particularly prominent and important. Prolonged negative emotions such as loss, loneliness, anger, and pessimism can lead to reduced appetite, poor sleep, weakened immune function, and the exacerbation of age-related diseases, especially the common cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in the elderly. Currently, the whole society is paying attention to the health issues of middle-aged and elderly people. The health of the elderly is not just an individual concern. "A family with an elderly person is a treasure." When a family focuses on health issues, the most important is the health of the elderly. The elderly are the health core of a family, and their health is closely tied to the happiness and peace of the entire family. If the elderly fall ill, it can bring inconvenience to the whole family. Therefore, caring for the health of the elderly is also a social issue. However, experts believe that while the elderly have a strong awareness of health care, their knowledge of it is lacking, which creates opportunities for those who exploit this to deceive them under the guise of health care. Thus, learning about elderly health care is an important aspect of family education.

This book is based on this principle, starting with the correct understanding of the human immune system and its functions, further enhancing the awareness of boosting immunity, and exploring issues of elderly health care, hoping to be helpful to everyone.
