There is a biological force within the body that wants you to live to old age. While conventionally this force is known in medicine as the immune system, Dr. Bob calls it: “The Biological Soul.”

The Biological Soul is designed to protect you and allow you to live a healthy life. This force is tangible, measurable, lives within the physical body and determines our age and wellbeing through life. It is physical and complex and, in many ways, spiritual. It is affected by life’s stresses, by diets, and by overall health and though not immortal; it both shapes your life and your life shapes it.

IMMUNITY STRONG walks readers through how the immune system works, what makes it implode or keeps it safe and what modern science reveals about how it connects to every part of the body to keep it alive—as the seat of our “Biological Soul.” Written in Dr. Bob’s trade-mark down-to earth style, the book explains that the normal immune system functions like a police department protecting the body from harm. While as a nation we have recently been focused on the effects of infections, the book reveals that it is important to note that disorders of immunity are at the root of most diseases that shorten or impact our lives. From chronic pain and fatigue syndromes, heart disease and clogged arteries and even the ability to recognize and destroy cancer, to multiple sclerosis, lupus, celiac disease, rheumatoid arthritis and autoimmune disorders are all linked to one or another glitch in the immune system.

The purpose of this book is to provide significant information on the incredible complexity of the immune system and how the integration of spiritual, scientific, and emotional values can enhance health. It is Dr. Bob’s hope that readers will find a new appreciation of the miracle that is the physical body and to understand the potential within our Biological Soul to promote longevity and overall happiness to life.

IMMUNITY STRONG: Boost Your Body''s Natural Healing Power and Live to 100 is a must-read for anyone wishing to nurture and enhance their health.

Industry Reviews

Praise for IMMUNITY STRONG: Boost Your Natural Healing Power and Live to 100 by Robert G. "DR. BOB" Lahita, M.D., Ph.D.

"IMMUNITY STRONG is written with simplicity about viruses, vaccines, immunity, and spirituality. It's a magic prescription to living beyond 100 - and lots less expensive than a visit to your MD's office." - Cindy Adams, New York Post Columnist and Host of WABC Radio's Cindy Adams Show

"In clear, easily accessible language, Dr. Bob has taken us on a wonderfully comprehensive journey through the biology he has spent his life investigating. A must read for all patients, but particularly those who struggle with autoimmune maladies for a substantial part of their lives." - Marianne J. Legato, M.D., Ph.D., Emerita Professor of Clinical Medicine, Columbia University Adjunct Professor, Johns Hopkins

"A delightfully written compilation of the latest concepts in immunology, with sound and thoughtful information about what is known and what is unknown. It should be read by anyone wishing to know the foundation for many of the recommendations for our better health, which is so critical nowadays." - Richard Bucala, M.D., Ph.D., Chief of Rheumatology, Allergy & Immunology, Yale University

"Dr. Bob's analogies make IMMUNITY STRONG very approachable, understandable, and fun to read! I will definitely recommend it to my patients." - Steven M. Lomazow, M.D., Assistant Professor, Icahn School of Medicine, Mt. Sinai

"Dr. Bob has crafted a book for our times; it's a tool to help everyone whether they just want the aging process to go smoothly, are a chronic illness sufferer, or are a person more of their aware of their need for a strong immune system due to the COVID pandemic." - Nika C. Beamon, Author of Misdiagnosed: The Search for Dr. House

"IMMUNITY STRONG presents a phenomenal and exemplary description on boosting our immunity, linking the immune response to realistic social and behavioral psychology and how to overcome the stressful environment that many of us are facing almost on a daily basis. In an easy-to-understand conversational format the book presents a model therapy to deal with stressful situations." - Subhash Dhawan, Ph.D., Retired Senior FDA Research & Regulatory Scientist

"Plato notwithstanding, others throughout history have wondered about the origins and power of spirituality, prayer, introspection, and morality, questioning their physiologic basis and how they shape human behavior. Plausible insights are now provided in IMMUNITY STRONG, a lively and believable work by 'Dr. Bob' Lahita. In just 219 easily-read pages, Dr. Bob elucidates for the inquisitive reader how the immune system responds to threats to the body's homeostasis, the possible role of biome communities to influence behavior, and the importance of sleep and stress modification for the maintenance of optimum immune function. Although written for a lay audience, this book may be enjoyed by medical professionals who can learn more effective ways to communicate otherwise complex scientific matters to their inquiring patients. The author's language is lucid, readily understandable, and unencumbered by distracting footnotes and parenthetical citations. This book is highly recommended for its explications, elucidations, and clarity. Besides, it is delightful to read." - Alan J. Lippman, M.D., Medical Oncology Specialist
