How Does the Body Fight Off a Cold?

The body has special guards called white blood cells that fight off a cold like knights fighting dragons.

When you breathe in tiny germs, they're like sneaky little invaders trying to get inside your body. They travel through your nose and into your throat, where they start multiplying like tiny bacteria armies.

Your white blood cells are like brave knights who sense the germs are there. They rush in to fight them off, using special tools called antibodies that stick to the germs and stop them from spreading.

Sometimes your body feels a bit tired, like after a big battle. That’s because it's working hard to beat the cold germs. But don’t worry, most of the time, your knights win the fight, and you get better! The body has special guards called white blood cells that fight off a cold like knights fighting dragons.
