Hard to guess: To find out for sure you can have blood test to measure your IgM immunoglobulin level in the blood . After consuming this immunity boosting teas for a while, let us say few months you can again have your IgM immunoglobulin level measured in the blood , if there is an increase that means the teas are increasing IgM immunoglobulins in the blood. Higher immunoglobulin level means more resistance.
