Detailed explanation-1: -They flow through your bloodstream to fight viruses, bacteria, and other foreign invaders that threaten your health. When your body is in distress and a particular area is under attack, white blood cells rush in to help destroy the harmful substance and prevent illness.

Detailed explanation-2: -White blood cells are part of the body’s immune system. They help the body fight infection and other diseases. Types of white blood cells are granulocytes (neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils), monocytes, and lymphocytes (T cells and B cells).

Detailed explanation-3: -Some sources of quality protein are fish, eggs, poultry, beef, milk, Greek yogurt and beans. If your diet is poor, or you’re having trouble eating, you can take a multivitamin or supplement with vitamin B12 and folate. The body uses vitamin B12 and folate to make WBCs.

Detailed explanation-4: -Neutrophils are the first responder of immune cells. Basophils release histamine to mount a non-specific immune response. Eosinophils fight bacteria and parasites but also provoke allergy symptoms. Lymphocytes are B and T cells that defend against specific invaders. Monocytes clean up dead cells. 19-Sept-2022
