Formulated in 1988 by Noboru Muramoto in his book: “Natural Immunity: Insights on Diet And AIDS” and slightly edited by me in 2021 as AIDS isn’t a topic of our time.

1. Your skin has a nice natural shine and is neither too oily or dry. You only need moisturizer under extreme conditions. No pimples or rashes and the color is clear regardless of pigment. If you get a bite or small cut, nothing more than a tiny inflammation occurs. You may sometimes have cold-like symptoms in cold whether, but no fever above 38˚C, headaches, severe coughing or other symptoms. This means your immune system is working properly. You are safe.
2. You sometimes have skin inflammations from small cuts or insect bites, but they go away without any treatment. Sometimes you have pimples or skin rashes, but they don’t become serious skin trouble. A couple of times each winter you have a common cold, which disappears again without treatment. This means your immune system is working at about 90% of its capacity.
3. Even if you have skin trouble, inflammations or infections they go away with the use of common ointments and simple medications. You catch cold several times a year, fever stays under 40˚C, no severe headaches, coughing or body pain and the cold subsides with simple treatment within a few days. This means your immune system is working at about 80% of its capacity.
4. You have long lasting or frequent skin troubles, such as pimples, rashes, flaky skin or skin infections. You often catch cold or flu, and sometimes you need prescription drugs or antibiotics. This means your immune system is working at about 70% of its capacity, and you are sometimes vulnerable to contamination as your immune system has a 30% reduced function.
5. You have candida, eczema, psoriasis or other serious skin disease inflammation or an infection for which you frequently need antibiotics or you are continually taking antibiotics to prevent infection. Or you have chronic respiratory system trouble, such as bronchitis, bronchial asthma, tuberculosis or other and you are often treated with epinephrine or cortisone, streptomycin, viomycin or alike. You catch colds even in the summer and they persist for a long time and the tendency is to repeat the same pattern next year. This means you have lost more than 40% of your immune ability. Your immune system is down to 60% of its capacity and you are vulnerable to contamination.
6. You have had one or more serious infectious diseases and had multiple antibiotic treatments. Even if you feel fine right now, it is very possible that the capacity of your immune system is down by 50% . You can become infected very easily if exposed to contamination.
