      It’s caused by your immune system getting a little too excited to kill some cold or flu and taking out your pancreas in the collateral damage.

        I appreciate that description. This is the kind of shit that comes to mind every time I hear someone claim “you should consume ________ to boost your immune system!” Like, if we could so easily increase it’s activity, this is the shit we’d be setting ourselves up for.
